This will cause the tires to toe out significantly more during turns. There are too many variables here adding to you stanced situation.

So should I just put my OE camber arms back on and get a realignment? The squeaking noise I originally searched for and found tire wear. Was coming from the aftermarket camber arms. The bushing towards the wheel. I lubed with white lit grease and this morning squeak is gone. But seems like something isn’t right with camber arm at least on driver (left rear side)

Completely understand “pay to play” thing. I was just curious as to why it wore so fast. Maybe 1200-1500 miles and ONLY ONE SIDE. My camber normally wore out tires bad in the inner side of tire evenly on the rear tires only. This is just one side. Making me thinking alignment or some sort of camber arm failure on that side.

It’s -5.3 and -5.4 to be exact (posted picture below) and that’s with these adjustable camber arms all the way in, they’re adjustable to -10 on my current setup. Because they’ll go out another -4 degrees

I still think something is off in the suspension on that side causing excessive camber when the car is in motion
I'd get an alignment from a different place to verify the measurements

I got my alignment at Nissan... it’s the best shop around and they’re about the only place that will do it. It’s an in ground rack and other shops told me no... cause it’s “too low” lol

I’d like to see an alignment sheet on this one.

Here ya go, it’s -5.4 and -5.3 sorry not quiet -6 but 1/2 degree but yes! The arms are all the way in, they’ll go another -4 degrees my friend has the same arms and has -10 maybe mid -9’s but you get the point.
