Tire wear??
I know some of you guys have a lot of camber and some have less than others. my question is, just to know and help some people out. How much camber are you riding at and how fast do your tires wear?
ill start off- i was at about almost 6 degree and my tires wore in less than 3k miles. 0_o

you should check your toe. Camber shows where your tires will wear, while toe depends how fast your tires will wear. If that makes any sense ahaha

yeah the toe helps a lot. but it does add more pressure to that spot and for suspension travel it means you are scrubbing the tire a lot more on that now hard pressed edge too. instead of pushing it out more on the tread. Also, that is, if you are on the tread its self, some love riding on the side wall which has no tread lol

I also learned that if your driving with soft dampers, driving low on the highway your tires are gonna pull if you dont have a stiff setup, which will cause your toe to kick out especially with air bags

Are you still on KYBs and UAS, or as of recently? I hated how soft my UAS and KYBs were. I can't imagine driving on them that low and aggressive as you are. How is your factory suspension holding up? I'm assuming it's all OEM?

Philly that is right for sure. I think I need stiffer springs for the shocks. I would rather be on bump stops so that way nothing changes haha

A tire with threadwear of 400 should last twice as long as one with a 200 rating in theory. But there's no industry standard for the ratings so one brand with 400 could still wear a lot faster than another brand with 400. Later.
