Wear on inner rear tires. Camber kits?
Hey, I just replaced my rear tires. I'm running 17 x 9 in the back. I'm lowered on buddy club coilovers all around. I'm not too low. I had wear on the inner sider of tire. Do I need to buy rear camber kit or can I just pull in the toe a bit?
Thanks

You do realize that you would buy camber joints if you want MORE camber. You seem to want less if you're saying that the inside is worn more than the outside. You need to go get an alignment and reduce your camber and most likely toe and enjoy better tire wear for how you drive your car.
I have access to an alignment machine, I'll c what the measurements say when I hook up the sensors. I think I'll just have to pull in the toe a bit. I just want the get the most out of my tires.

Dont listen to this, this is inaccurate information.
While these guys are right about getting an alignment, if your too low, your alignment will be "maxed" out at like -2.5 degrees of camber (as in this is as straight up and down as you can get) with the toe not being anywhere near where it supposed to be, which will result in excessive wear on the inside of the tire. This happened to me, and I was just lowered on Espelirs lowering springs on 18x9.5 +50 rear wheels.
Now to answer your question, I had to buy a camber kit which allowed me to PULL the negative camber out and fix the toe. Now Im running -1.5 degrees of camber with the toe set to .2 degrees on each side for a total toe of .4 (UK specs) I have MUCH more even wear on my tires now, and this was all possible by purchasing a camber kit
