I lowered my car one inch today with springs... Put it on the alignment machine and my rear camber will only got as far as -2.8

Is this normal for a lowered S?

Depends on who you have doing your alignment. The first alignment I got, they could only get it to -2.8 Then I took it to a really good race shop and they got it to -2.3, same suspension.

at -2.3 did your tires wear bad?

Nope, but that's all subjective. Even on stock suspension and alignment, I was only getting 10k max from my rears. You can see there was a little camber wear, but the centers were pretty worn too.



I've come to learn not to worry about tire wear and have just decided that it's necessary to get new rear tires 3-4 times a year.
