skunk2 cmaber kit

It seems as though the skunk2 camber kit just doesn't cut it. my friends '93 hatch the insides of my front tires are wore down really far. I adjusted the camber so that the tire was a little more straight up and down so i hope that helps. It still looks as though it is going to ruin my tires.

I don't know what to do because i don't want him to keep having to buy tires, hes not rich.

Anyways is there anyway that can make the insides of the tires not wear down so fast?? The kit doesn't seem to straighten out the tire enough when it is fully extended.

dude the kit adjusts up to +/-4 degrees, and the car needs aligned. the worst angle that wears the tire is the toe and that changes drastically when you adjust the camber.
