wear on inner right rear tire, cant be adjusted
I had a four wheel alignment. Big O says I need a $250 kit on the right rear because they cant adjust the toe? any further.
I dont get it, my car is stock, what would keep it from being aligned properly?
BTW fronts were worn thin on inner edge, never noticed. had alignment and put on Sumitomos, but still have Dunlop DZ2
on rear till I noticed inner wear spot. Ive been told I could swap left to right and bleed a few more miles out of them.
No apparent handling issues with the mix of the two.

If I had a nickle for every half-wit tech saying they can't get toe correct and that you need a civic ricer camber kits... The two eccentrics on the rear control arm MUST BE TURNED IN OPPOSITE DIRECTIONS if you want to set toe properly. Meaning if you turn the tie rod eccetric clockwise, turn the control arm eccentric counter clockwise. Also check your upper control arm bushings, if they're worn they can affect dynamic toe and cause excessive inner tire wear.
