Hello everyone I was wondering if theres any members here with any experience regarding figs and installing their toe link on the 350?
Reason being I dont even have 10k on my rear falken fk510s and the inner tire wear is noticeable..... yet the sides still have a lot more left in them, so would this figs part cure the problem?

Reason: Wording
I would first look at getting a camber arm. But if you're still unable to dial in the toe as desired, then a toe arm might be needed as well. I have Megan camber arms right now, and my rear alignment has been dialed in at factory spec. Though I'm not easy on my 350, my Michelin Super Sports have lasted a while now.

Are you sure this will fix the issue? How much does it cost?
There are other aftermarket options for these same camber arms, but I've only ever used Megans.
so the rear inner tire wear could be from the camber arms or this toe link as well..... I will take it to my alignment shop that I had it dine previously because they actually got it to ride straight unlike another shop I went to previously.
Depending how far off the toe is, those camber arms could help adjust the suspension geometry enough to get you back within factory spec for both the camber and toe. I'm speaking from my own personal experience here. This is why I got Megan camber arms.

Dang alright well I may just give it a try then.... it doesnt seem like the toe links seem to be the possible cause since your experience was different... and it may also be my same issue.

Post up your As Left alignment spec's. If the rears are toe'd out, coupled with OEM negative camber and slightly low air pressure, it will wear the insides. Toe and tire pressure are the biggest killers of tread life.
These cars at stock ride height run -1.5 to -2.25 negative camber and if toe and pressure is good, get full tire life. Start by sharing your last alignment.
A master Lexus mechanic told me that's how I S s are designed, so unless you modify, you will not be able to fix it. I gave up and buy cheap tires and destroy the inside very quickly. I hate that about my IS.
When I first bought the car it always pulled right I had it aligned 3 times since I owned it, 1st tine went to a tire shop and it still pulled right then went to a special alignment shop and they really did wonders on it but it still pulled to the right at high speeds, went back to them and they redid the alignment and now I have no issues really, it drives straight on good roads but otherwise depending on the road it goes to the right slowly.
Here are all the alignments done, the third is the last one that still works for me to this day. Still pulled to the right at low speeds and high. Only pulled very slightly to the right on higher speeds. Now the car drives straight, but depending on the road it goes to the right.
My front tires wear evenly now and I have no issues with life for them, but like others have said it may be that camber arm or even the toe link, which I will look into very soon.
