If you get it aligned you wont get as much camber. More negative camber = the wheel caves in more, but eats more tires

o ok cause i been looking at info and it say soemthign about the toe that wear you tire,from what i got from my research is that if i get negative camber (not thT AGGRESIVE) and my toe is at 0 i wont wear tires as much but it doesnt seem to make sense because the more camber u have the more the tire are getting wear on them

Thats true that toe is what mainly eats your tire. When you run camber, you're only letting so much amount of tire touch the ground, since its "caved" in part of the tire isn't making contact with the ground. Where as no camber has more contact with the ground thus giving you more tirelife.

you can still get a good amount of tire life out of the tires. once it starts wearing pretty good, you can always have the tires swapped to the other side of the car
