Go to firestone and pay for the lifetime alignment, my bet is you don't need toe bolts...

Up at post #52, OP says he's no lowered. Which to me is pretty crazy with the amount of tread wear on those tires. You doing burnout? Drifting? Trying to impress the ladies

1) How many miles you getting out of each set of tires? You said 5 months, but if your commute is 100 miles a day, one way, the wear would be justified. If not, then, something else.

2) Can you get a picture of the treads, not just the edge, but facing the treads of the tire? We can see inside wear, but what does the rest of the tread look like?

3) Also, try to get a picture from the rear quarter panel, down low looking towards the front of the car.

4) Do you have your alignment specs? Usually shops give you a printout after your alignment. You'll have "actual" and "before" numbers. Mainly looking for camber and toe numbers. If you can post those or scan an image, we can probably give you better feedback about the numbers rather than just assumptions.

What's killing me is, he's not lowered... why would his toe be off? the coupe naturally has some negative camber (alignment specs give -1.75 deg as an acceptable range for rear camber). But after an alignment at the shop, any toe should be easily fixed. And camber without lower, for that matter. Or does having 20"s have anything to do with it? (Nice wheels, btw, TSW Estorils? I had the gunmetal ones on my Altima ) Again, we need that spec sheet to get a better idea.

Good luck, I hope everything works out.

from my experience you need your alignment to be re-adjusted after placing 20s and wider tires or any other size then stock.
