If your car was set as "factory delivered" this wouldn't be an issue. Since you, or the previous owner, lowered the car, you are now on the slippery slope of modifications. Will new $300 arms be the answer? perhaps. Will learning to live with tires that wear out a few thousand miles early be ok? We all make compromises.. now its time to decide on yours

That said, having an appropriate amount of negative camber will improve the car's handling with the trade off of potentially higher tire wear.
