rear alignment???

[love_le_E]

Hey, i need some help. I am really getting quite tired of having to replace my rear tires on my 94 accord every two months or so. This is the third set i will be replacing. I got BRAND NEW tires in august, in october my rear tires were completely bald, but my front tires had full tread still. i got new rear tires and in dec. had the same problem, so i got new tires again and i had to have them replaced yesterday again. my bro told me that it could be my rear alignment? i have never had a problem like this on any of my cars and was wondering if anyone had any clue as to what the prob might be.

thanks!

is your car lowered.....you may need a rear camber kit

no it isn't lowered, that is what is so crazy about it. i know that i have a problem with my front end alignment. the car was wrecked on the front end and ever since it was fixed it has pulled to the right. but after i had my rims and tires put on it started doing it REALLY bad. it is so bad that i actually have to keep my steering wheel turned slightly to the left so my car will go straight. i have tried having it aligned and it doesn't seem to work!!! what do i do???

where is wearing? inside or outside? I say take it to a better shop.

I went to a different shop to get my alignment done.. and they didn't do sh#t except charge me for alignment that didn't work. I went back to the place i usuall got my alignment done.. my car drives straight...and the guys there always show me my stats on all four wheels and what they are adjusting right in front of me..

I don't know if u have a place called Supension Plus there, but they do really good work.

okay, i will try a new shop. uhm...the driver side rear is wearing on the outside, the passenger side is wearing on the inside. kinda weird. will the dealer do alignments? i don't have a Suspension Plus here. i will just call my dealer and see if they reccomend a place.

thanks guys so much!

I have the same problem with my 02 Accord.

My rear tires seem to be wearing out fast on the insides.
Both tires are seem to be in need of an alignment. I've taken it to many car shops and when they put it on the machine they tell me its in spec.

I find it odd because I bought new tires like 3 months ago.
My front tires are still like brand new. My rear tires still have alot of treading on em expect for the inside treading.

Im not sure what the problem could be. My car is not lowered. I have stock springs and shocks.

The only thing I can think of is I have installed a rear lower tie bar.
Would that throw off my alignment?
Also I was told hondas have negative camber in the rear and that the rear tires cant be aligned. Is that so?
Please let me know. Im about to buy a rear camber kit to fix this problem.

i think i know what it is.try to take it to a collision shop. they should know that for hondas involved in a major front end collision, the back control arms sometimes bend. i dont know how or why, but when mr 94 accord was hit in front i had to replace the rear control arms also.check it out and let me know.i have also seen this happen to a lexus, so i know that its pretty common, try the collision shop.
