Alignment Problems

Well I had the front and rear ingalls camber kit installed like 3 weeks ago and had it alligned by the same guy who installed the kit.. After about 2-3 weeks I notice my tires are wearing in front very quickly(inner side). I noticed the wheels look like they have less negative camber but there still wearing. He said he checked toe and the car seems to drive fine no puliing or anything, Could there be something wrong with my suspension besides the alignment?

I am going to Honda on Friday and putting my summer rims on with new rubber and they say it shouldn't be a problem to align. I just don't want to keep buying new tires.
I have GC coilovers by the way with tokico shocks (00 civic). The drivers side front is about 1/4 inch higher then the passenger sides front before i sit in it. But when I do sit in it they are level. I did this on purpose Is there a problem with doing this?

PS. I'm dropped about 1.8 all around.

Re: Alignment Problems

It could have been mis-aligned w/ factory spec's from the 1st time. Your car is lowered & on adjustable coilover sleeves. The first thing you need to is find some one who works with "high performance" suspension, then have them adjust corner weight/ride height & then align it. Making sure nuts/bolts are tight.

One thing many people never consider when adding adjustable parts is to nut & bolt it. That means check every nut/bolt on those adjustable parts once a month. If you plan on racing you will want to nut & bolt it for all nuts,bolts, screws before every event, check 2-3 times.
