Hello,
My 06 Impala loves to wear out the outer edges of the tires. The mechanic I bought the tires from was wondering about the wear when I borought it in for another issue.
He checked the alignment and the alignment is dead on. However, my mechanic found out that when a driver or passengers are in the car, the cmber changes drastically. He reported that the camber is not adjustable on this car (and a few other cars). He did mention that there is a camber kit that can be installed to accomodate the change to stop the premature wear of tires.
Anyone else hear of this situation? Anyone know the specifics of this camber kit?
Thanks a bunch....

I don't happen to remember the details off hand, but VERY common problem with 06+, especially the rear wheel camber. Camber kit should fix it.
