Eibachs and Alignment



FWIW, when I had the car aligned after the Eibachs were installed, the
camber on the front would go no "better" (i.e. closer... towards
"normal" OEM spec) than 1.5 degrees negative on each side.

I know that more negative camber is better for turn-in response and grip
in cornering (hmm... maybe Eibach intentionally designed this in?), but
how much am I going to suffer in increased tire wear (i.e. negative is
great for cornering, but in a straight line, the inner edge will wear
faster).

Will I be replacing my Comp T/A VR4s in a short period of time?
