Default Rear alignment Question/help

My car has a proper alignment done by a reputable shop, but I am still experiencing excessive inner tire wear on the rear tires.


The current settings are -3.3* camber and 1/16" toe in on each side. Does anyone have a recommendation to what I should set the rear toe to?

You should consider doing the Lance alignment. Your car might be too lowered for the specs on the Lance alignment though.

I have had that page bookmarked since I got the car.... Unfortunately I'm too low to get my camber within those specs.
