really bad tyre wear on all four inside edges?

By Ben Sinkinson
- Wed Jun 08, 2011 11:42 am #258613 bought a stunning jdm d15b VTEC and the car had been previously lowered, as the subject suggests i am eating tyres, i am in the process of changing both lower front arms and the CV joints inc boots, also a new steering rack due to excessive play, just wondering what i could do to sort the tyre situation, any help would be much appreciated.

NO you do NOT need camber adjustment kits.
