wah fall into longkang, that must me the reason. camber alignment i dunno how much. Last time i used to think that do alignment means alignment everything wheel related meaning include at least Toe and Camber. But i think i was wrong.. hmm.gif hmm.gif

i come to realise that when tyre shop say do alignment RM 2x++, they only mean align toe. then in the process they'll ask/persuade you change to adjustable camber bolt, RM 80 each doh.gif doh.gif mega_shok.gif then will ask want adjust camber or not, reason is that RM 2x is not including camber adjustment. Then they'll say your what stroke/yoke blah blah's oil dry already, need change. then need change this, need change that.

exactly how much to adjust it back, better let other more experienced ppl answer. as i only had my bad experience. basically just be prepared/alert and uhh.. good luck thumbup.gif

For your tire problem, that's because too much negative camber like mentioned above and also can be from too much toe out.

As for your brake pads, it's not that uncommon. You just get the calipers serviced, cleaned, bleed the brakes again with new fluids.

Actually from the looks of it, the misalignment if camber is still tolerable. The wear on the tyre although is not even but is minimal since the tyre should be replaced soon.

Time to visit your tyre shop & get the camber setting done.

adjusting alignment is <RM30. camber is <RM20 front/rear. toe i duno, normally my usual workshop only cost me <RM60 to do all alignment, camber, toe following the setting i want for all 4 wheels.

that guy is at avenue ampang. the signboard is some "Explosion" name. normally his workshop very crowded.
