Curious of your toe settings? My car is over -3 degrees camber and with a little over 1500 miles on them so far they show nothing close to this...they're barely worn honestly. Maybe its the tire itself? I have just the slightest amount of positive toe...almost 0 really, but just a hint of positive toe it seems has helped curb tire wear for me.

Planning on getting a set of wild wheels in a neon color and thought it'd make an awesome backdrop. Also, cops... I don't like them.

I wouldn't think caster would effect it much, my caster is at 7.5 right now and has been since I bought tension rods way back when I first bought the car. Is that -1/8 or +1/8?

Black with bright wheels is super played out imo. The black wheels with the wide (315 drs) rubber will stay for normal driving since this thing likes to burn out at 60mph with anything else. Plus, less flashy for the fuzz. Once I get some more money, I'd love to get a baller set of 18s with some poke for going whoring.
