Your tires will wear out faster, I'll bet you have a lot of toe in.

Just get adjustable RUCA's and toe arms, then you'll be able to adjust your alignment properly. Let's see these pics!

That's normal. To correct it you need rear upper control arms, as well as toe arms.

If you want the tire to wear evenly without having to get RUCA's, you can get toe arms and give it about 1/16" to 1/8" toe in, that will counteract the camber wear. Your tires will still wear faster though.

Just get RUCAs and toe arms and get it aligned.
