Question Alignment Issues

Purchased a G35 2007 Sedan with 20" MRR GT1, Eibach pro springs.
Having major alignment issues and extreme inner tire wear. Trying to figure out what to do.
Firestone told me that the alignment is set to the max.

Not too sure what to purchase to correct the alignment. Reading about camber arms, bolts and sway bars.

Can anybody advice what I need to get installed and approx prices for parts and labor.
Thanks

Your toe is way off and I mean way off. It should be less than .15 and you are at .84 - .97 Toe will tear up your tires very quick and along with that since you are lowered look into control arms for your setup to correct camber which will help you correct toe as well.

Yes and no to your answer. When you adjust camber with that it will affect toe as well. You can max out your TOE and still not be in spec since camber is too far out of spec. If you can correct camber from -2 to -1.0 then you will be able to dial out the TOE and bring it back in spec. I would look at SPC and EIBACH products and see what works for you. You will need front upper control arms adjustable, rear camber arms and toe bolts in the rear. That should be able to bring everything back in spec to extend tire life.

delboy, anytime we lower our G35s you need to include/install adjustable a-arms (F) and camber adjuster/tow bolts (R) unless of course you own a tire shop. With the cost of quality tires it's advisable to fix your suspension right. Everything you need to correct your alignment can be found at our MARKETPLACE filed under vendor suspension. Alignment, find an independent brake/alignment shop in your area...way better and more reliable than Firestone.
