Question Stock Rear Tire Question.

I've got a question, should the insides of my stock rears wear out well before the outsides do?

that's pretty normal (though you'll need to define "well before")

but in general, the stock camber on the Z is pretty agressive and uneven wearing of the rear tires is normal

Well before = insides are smooth and the outsides have a ton of tread left.

Strife350z, I'm assuming your 16" wheels are snow wheels? If so, can you give me the specs? Width and offset?

you know, i've had that sig for about a year now and you're the first person to ask me about it!

yep, it's for my 100% bling winter setup:

size: 16"
width: 7.5"
offset: +35 mm (yes, sunk in and proud of it)
tires: toyo observe g02+ (awesome tire... I was passing SUVs in -40 degrees celcius last feb)
tire size: 215-60-16 (can you say, FAT, cushy, unsupportive sidewall? )

hmm... if that's the case, unless you're lowered, your wear pattern is a tad on the abnormal side... have your camber checked by Nissan if your car is relatively new
