Just got back from the 30k service, and bad news on the rear tires.... MAJOR need for a camber adjustment!!! Sad to see 80% tread on all the tire except where the cords are showing on the inside... DOH!! Should have paid closer attention, but since it was a borderline drop, was hoping I could get away with it. Oh well, I guess it's a good excuse to get new tires too.

How much are you dropped?
I lowered mine 1 1/4 and have quite agressive rear camber but (knock on wood) haven't noticed any significant rear tire wear in 3 different sets..
1. OEM P6000s wore out at like 18k
2. Pilot Sports (sold after 5000k)
3. Yokohama Parada 2s (on RS4s) which are wearing ok
However going wider soon (much) so might have to consider a KMAC, keep me posted

I will go in on a set with you. Let me know I lowered about 1 1/2" and it just looks wrong....
Way to much toe-in. Been waiting on a set of Forge arms, however after a month and a half I don't believe I will ever get them and am stopping the order.

Re: How much are you dropped?
an inch to 1.5, I think. Tires look allright except for the inside inch where the cords are showing..... oh, and the back end is crazy loose in the rain. Back end hydroplanes at 65 even in light rain. Guess the H2O has no place to go on the inside.
