My only real issue going into the alignment seemed to be very fast wear on inner portion of both front tires (possible excessive negative camber). I was down to 5-6mm tread after only about 8,000 miles on fronts. Tires had not been rotated since installed.

With $$ spent on new tires I wanted to minimize this situation. Well, front negative camber was 1.1 degrees - right within specs. I was told rotate tires more option.

You need a KMac camber kit for your tires.....about $300.

OOOOya

..one of the fronts corded itself flat. Same wear you describe. The fronts went from OK looking to corded/flat inside 1500 miles. Alignment was checked after and was within spec. My car is 100% stock.

I forgot to mention that car has OEM sport suspension

Care to elaborate? Is this kit to reduce negative camber? Any negatives?

BernieBenz

Negs, Yes. $300. With Sport suspension one can shim the wheel bearings to achieve any desired camber

Unless racing and tire life is of no concern, I have real problems with those (Audi) Specs. For max tire life:
Camber should be Zero, -0.5deg absolute max neg. and identical both sides.
Total Toe also should be Zero, drive torque will pull it slightly neg. Also, total toe must be centered on the chassis, F and R.

DIY!

Do it right without shims and more adjustability...I am lower than OEM "Sport" suspension...

BernieBenz

But without Sport suspension, you had no alternative! More adjustability, Not true!
