Suspension Problems

Having and issue with the rear tires wearing out with in 10k miles. Going to replace the strut assembly, but I want to make sure I am getting good quality parts. I am in an 04 g35 coupe with sport suspension. Any suggestions?

You can get the camber arms from Z1 (might as well get the front as well). These cars came from the factory with more of a sporty suspension set up which will cause the uneven tire wear.

I know they'll be faster wear on them, but about 12 - 15k is all I am getting out of the tires.

I would just get the camber kits from Z1, I think they are like 100 bucks. Cant beat the price to save the tires.

Gotta love logic!

Some part of your rear suspension is worn to the point it's causing your inside wear issue! Camber kit won't fix what is broken...but still a good idea! Run your G past a quality independent alignment/brake shop to figure what needs replacing so you don't waste your $$ on parts you don't need!
