Rear Wheels look tilted in
The top of the rear wheels look angled in toward the car. Like the negative camber when you get tire feathering on the front. I had my car in the shop for the feathing problem. The dealership fixed the alignment on all four wheels.
My question is: Are the rear wheels suppose to be angled / \ toward the car? It seems to me that they would wear on the inside like the front. I thought it was an optical illustion at first but they really are angled. My car rides smooth and there is no more feathering on the front. Just wondering if anyone else nothiced this.

Yes, they are supposed to be that way. To what degree is subjective. Pick up a good book on handling, that will explain how and why. I found HOW TO MAKE YOUR CAR HANDLE by Fred Puhn a pretty good read...

The front feathering wasn't caused by camber, it was from toe in. From the factory, I really can't see any cambering on my 03... but then again, I don't have any aftermarket suspension parts either. Do you know if your car is still stock?
