Hi Folks,

I found why my right tire inside wore to the cords after taking it to an
alignment shop, paid $100 said everything was "fine".  Of course it wasn't
(also paid $150 to mount balance new tires & inspection sticker).

I put a level along the rim and the right side measured 5/16" to the rim
whereas the left side was 1/8".

Since there's no real camber adjustment, it's a PITA to loosen upper shock
mount etc bolts and slide the assembly over.

Normally I hate watching YouTube videos but this one was only a minute long
showing how to do it loosening 4 upper bolts after removing frunk cover:

You would think a $55K car would have a simple camber adjustment but no.

The toe-in was correct, about 1/8" measured with a measuring tape from the
same points on the tread (front vs back of front tires).

Guess they thought it was too much like work to adjust.  Not sure if I can
trust another shop and waste another day, probably can do it quicker myself.


Have a renewable energy day,

Mark
