Could someone tell me what the potential cause of my tire wear could be? I know I have some negative camber, but the wear on my tires is on the very inside only.

Car is a 98 GS400, lowered on Tein Flex and running 235-35-19's on 19x8.5 rim.

I've uploaded two pics to show what I'm referring to.

Any input would be greatly appreciated.

Toe wear, have an alignment done and you should be okay. A lot of times is toe wear is mistaken as camber wear.

Wow, so toe wear can really eat up your tires like that, huh?

Thanks, I really appreciate your response.

true story:

i drove up to NY (i live in charlotte) to visit my family, (on a brand new set of Direzzas) and run in an autocross event that weekend. The friday before the event i went to an alignment shop and told him how much camber i wanted, and told him to give me .2* of total toe on the rear tires. The idiot gave me 2.0* of toe instead. By the time i got home (the trip from NY is about 700 miles) my rear tires were bald.

moral of the story: don't let strange people from far away places touch your car. Especially if that far away place is Staten Island.

Yes, toe wear is def your problem, camber is just focusing the wear onto the area of tire most in contact with the ground, someone told me a while ago that for every 1/8 toe its basically like dragging your tires sideways several feet of every mile traveled..so go get a good alignment and check them often!
