I get what you’re saying but 1000miles on a set of tires isn’t “normal” even with higher camber.

Here are my specs:
Camber 5*
Caster 3.5*
Toe 10 in

Actually - with that much camber, I am blown-away that you even get 1000 miles out of your tyres

The toe setting also looks dodgy. 10 "what" in ..... 10 degrees, 0.10 inch, 10mm ........... is that total toe-in or each side.
JARblue, Rusty and Memphis370Z like this.
