I had a stock setup for about 8k miles and have had RSR downs on stock wheels for about 12k miles. (total 20k miles on the car) However i didn't get a chance to get an alignment after installing the lowering springs. With that said, Ive noticed uneven tire threads on the rear wheels but the front wheels are still in good condition (even tire wear)

I commute from Santa Cruz California to San francisco couple times a month where the road is super windy.

Ive read that RSR downs don't affect tire wear that much so am i getting bad tire wear because i didn't get an alignment?
Could this also be due to toe wear instead of camber wear?
Or is it normal for uneven tire wear especially since i drive on windy roads a lot?

Sorry idk why the picture is uploaded upside down

it's most likely toe wear. you HAVE to get your ride aligned when you do any kind of suspension work.

hopefully you get an alignment before your next set of tires.

Likely it's toe wear...however the tire is down to the cords, so hard to tell for sure.
If it's only one side, then for sure toe...and camber is not adjustable from factory anyways.

Once you get new tires an alignment is a most.

TOE eats tire faster than CAMBER

Any time anything is done to suspension, a Alignment should be done right away unless you do not care about destroying a set of tires faster than normal.

I just purchased and installed a set of these to mitigate premature inside edge wear on the rear tires.... BTW, I'm stock (2015 350 AWD F-Sport.......OEM staggered set-up.)

And 2nd the alignment notion.....

Just got new tires and looking for a place to get an alignment in the Bay Area (preferably San Francisco). Does anyone have any recommendations?
