That looks like you're just running on whatever camber automatically happens when you lower the car. If you're going through tires really quickly, it's NOT due to your camber. That's not enough camber to tear up tires. You really might want to look in to getting an alignment soon. At that height and on stock wheels, you can get an alignment all the way back to stock specs and not have to worry about clearance issues.

^^ very interesting. the faux vents are the only thing i don't like about the ap1 bumper, but totally filled looks a bit strange.

you should put an OEM lip on there and see what it looks like!

any more pics?

yea i had sears align my car when i put my tires on then just recently i had my dealership redo my alignment. -2.5 is the best they can do. it wont move any farther. there was some good adjustments done where sears ****ed up though so hopefully my tires will last a lil longer now. thumbs down to sears.
