Toe. When i first put my wheels and camber arms in, i tried to drive to the alignment shop without touching the toe (it was visibly out). I was switching lanes every time i hit a bump...

Have your alignment done again.. there's no reason you should be going through tires that quickly. They either only did a front end alignment or they didn't even adjust your rear toe at all because only scrubbing from toe will cause wear that quickly.

dude, you need to get your printout from teh alignment shop
maybe they are just adjusting it within what the stock setup will do

you may need toe arms or whatever your soarer uses

Going by those pics thats not that dramatic of camber and stretch at all. I think its actualy simple but looks pretty good by the way. I would say there is something wrong thats comeing out of spec ( camber caster kit ) or they aint doing it right at all.


Edit: now I kinda see the stretch

Doesnt even look like 4 degrees of camber. I have had 6.5 degrees for almost 1 year now, including several suspension height changes with no realignment and i could still go for a few more months

If your tyres are bald in 2 weeks, then either you have big problem with your right foot, or a serious misalignment (are you sure they didnt just do a 'wheel balance'?).

Could be your front lower control arms. If the bushings are done, you will get really bad tire wear in the front. Get some Supra TT front LCAs from Carson Toyota.
