I remember a week or so ago someone else posted pics of there tires and they were worse than mine. These were only on the car for less than 8k miles, ouch.

No good! Besides hurting my wallet, driving much more on these could have lead to something bad. I wish there was a easier way to solve the problem of this much negative camber

CPP stuff is junk and not suitable for street use because the heim joints are not sealed.

PITA to adjust tho, especially if you car has lowered aftermarket suspension.
