<center><img src="http://pictureposter.audiworld.com/42872/1-3-06_alignment.jpg"></center><p>So after getting back from San Simeon in April, I notice my two front tires have very bad wear on the insides. I buy two new ones, stick them on the front, get an alignment and everything is OK. So they wear down a little and I swap them to the back after a track event (Fernley I think) when swapping track wheels/tires. Well this last week I swapped out all control arms, TRE, bearings, CV's,etc. on the car. I figure, hey, lets put the newers back on the front. They are showing good wear. Get an alignment on the 3rd of January. Come out to my car this morning, flat tire...pump it up thinking I ran over something last night testing my new 02...nope...inner tire on driver side front is worn down to the belts!!!! In 9 DAYS!!!!! The two tires were perfect when I swapped them to the front on the 2nd of January!!! F*CK. I just got these tires. They are Kumho MX in a 225/40/18 on the DTMS...Ride Height...
Fr Dr=25 1/16" Fr Ps=25"
Rr Dr=25 1/16" Rr Ps=25 5/16"
I'm planning to raise it all to 25.5 all around unless someone says otherwise. See the specs of the alignment below...does anything look out of whack. Thanks
I'll be in the garage cursing now! I need a beer..oh its 8:30am! Damn.

smart *** comments AW puts out. It's a simple question. I just want input on the best way to correct the situation. I know 0 toe is the best way to correct tire wear(done by search), but for camber is there a specific ride height, BESIDES STOCK, that one can get to? Whats ideal...1.5, 1.25 on each side on a lowered suspension.

did to resolve them. What ride height are you at? Do you know off the top of your head? Thanks
