ive just noticed my rear tyres are wearing really badly on the inner side of the tyre, the handling on my car is terrible so im guessing the camber is way out but can anyone help me find out what it is if it isnt the camber?

tyres are about 4months old and have had tracking done a few months back but never had the camber allignment checked...

cheers for any help!
 
Have you got ajdustablr coliovers on and/or Camber adjusters?
Also Its probably very unlikely being on both side but the car might have been in an accident?
 
havent got camber adjusters or adjustable suspension mate... i did skid on ice before getting these wheels and tyres, i bent 2 rpf1's on the passanger side..

whats most likely to get damaged after having a knock to the wheels? the body work hasnt bent or dented in anyway and it wasnt a high speed knock :(

ive been wondering if its my suspension causing the problem, i had to buy a cheap set after my bilsteins collapsd on me and ended up going for koni str-t shocks/springs and i think the potholes round here have given them a quick death!

your toe is way out on the rear, needs an alignment and probably have badly worn rta bushes.
 
how do you adjust toe on the rear?? had new honda rta bushes fitted about 3months ago mate
 
In most cases its toe that kills tyres and not camber. The toe is adjustable front and rear on these hondas. As mentioned above you may have worn trailing arm bushes as well which will speed up the wear. Simple and cheap job - well worth doing. then get the car to an alignment centre to get it back to stock. If they cant manage it then tehres a chance you have bent something.
 
I bet when they did your rear trailing arm bushes they did not set up the rear tracking.
