As long as I've had the car (8 months now?) I've not adjusted the camber so this had to be with the previous owner. Its really not TERRIBLE, but I was curious when I put my winter tires on and looked at these now that they came off the car -- is this kind of camber wear was something to get adjusted out, or is it pretty negligible?

 

That's normal.

These cars don't run 0 camber so a little camber wear like that is fine.

 

Worth checking your car's specs with an alignment. If those are directional tires get them flipped and you will extend the life of the tires.

 

You have the indicator bars at the same level as the surface: get new tires next summer.

The wear looks normal.




edit: and some damage from a screw or something in the left one.

 

Man that's nothing, these cars eat tires like crazy, if you want them to last go non staggered and get continental contisport D W they're non directional and symmetric so you can rotate them easily. Otherwise get used to it, the suspension causes camber gain on compression, run at stock levels with plenty of camber, plus it naturally runs crazy caster, which although isn't a wear angle, it does cause more dynamic camber.

I get about 10,000 miles out of my rears, and 16,000 from the fronts, I don't rotate them, and I drive my car hard. But at ~$100/tyre I can live with that expense, granted I fit, balance, and align my own tires, so it would be more expensive if I paid someone to do it, but $65 to mount and balance 4 tires plus $70 for an alignment isn't bad.

 

S2000's do see some inside tread wear. The combination of camber and toe present in the stock alignment/geomtery will cause that.

Front tires seem to last longer than rears.
