Hi , I just brought a set of Tein super street for my 1997 240sx. My mechanic will be installing it for me this week. He told me to get a set of camber bolts for my car. He also told me that even if I changed that, its still going ceate uneven tire wear. Is there anything else I can do to take care of this problem??? If not, I am thinking about the H&R triple c or one from http://www.courtesyparts.com that adjust up to 1.75 degrees. Please let me know what I should do. Your time is greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance

your mechanic must not be to familiar with full body coilovers. The good majority of them have camber plates in the front, which replace the stock strut mount. Allowing for mega tons of camber adjustment. Now for the rear coilovers, they do not have adjustable camber plates. But stock upper control arms on the back have eccentrics in them to allow for some camber adjustment but not very much. If you need more(which you probably will), then buy some aftermarket rear upper control arms. Those camber bolts that he recamended are relatively cheap, and wont allow for anymore adjustment then your stock eccentric bolts.laters
