I hate to post this embarrassing pic. I just happened to discover the tire wear this morning. The tires passed inspection a few months ago. I knew this summer I was going to buy new tires, but I took care of that at lunch today. I understand there will be SOME wear on the inside of the tire due to the camber in the rear wheels, but jeez this seems extreme. I couldn't compare it to the right side tire as it was replaced about a year ago and still had good tread (previous owner hit a road hazard). So here are my questions...

Could improper inflation (lower pressures) cause this? My former P-zeros were so rough I think I kept the pressures around 32 psi instead of the recommended 36 psi (rear).

Any common rear suspension issues for a 60k mile Boxster?

Do I "likely" have an alignment issue?

Can a regular alignment place do a Boxster?

Any special tools to align a Boxster?


I'm guessing for good piece of mind I should just bite the bullet and get an alignment anyway. I hate to fix anything unless I KNOW it's broke. Opinions please! and thanks!
