I have found a resonably priced s2k with 38000 km. The only thing I could find wrong with it was the stock tires all have pretty bad camber wear. Is this a s2k thing or did this lady jump a curb doing 90 over a curb. the car drives straight and i cant see any damage any where that would indicate a crash or anything.

Why dont you take this car to be examined for any crash as you suspect?

When I had my stock wheels on I had a normal wear equal to the whole width of the tire. But if someone has messed up with the camber settings etc, then this could be the reason as well...

 

The inside of the front tires should be more worn due to a somewhat more aggressive camber. The rears should be pretty even from my experience.

 

the car Looks and feels like it was never modified. I guess a alingment would tell me. the tires are all even wear but they all have a camber wear in that looks kinda raggy a little les than a inch on the insides

 

The tires are known to wear as described, it sounds like the car is due for a new set. Generally the rears will last 10-15k miles and the fronts about twice as long.

 

so the camber is normal. I the front looks like its still good till you get undrneath and look at the inside of the tread.

 

anyone else experiance wear like this? It looks like the tire is fine all the way across except th last inch of rubber in the inside is raggy. this car feels straight, i hope its o.k

 

I usually see this with te UK alignment specs, but its not unusual. Id get a Carfax and have the car checked out. Also, deduct from the price what it will cost you to get new SO2 or RE050 tires depending on year - $900.

 

I hope it turns out straight. I want this thing bad
