Hi,

Hard to tell from just the pics. If most of your driving is straight-ahead Freeway driving, than I'd say you have an issue, but if you drive primarily in the twisties, given the mileage, I'd say there is no problem.

The stock Boxster has positive Toe and positive Camber (+5' ± 5' and +5' ± 30' respectively). So negative Toe and Camber can't be the issue. But what may be the culprit here is the allowable difference L to R for both Toe and Camber (-1° 20' ± 30' and 20' respectively). This sort of looks like the case to me, as if the tires are fighting each other. I'm also assuming that you don't travel with excess weight in the front? In any event, 22k mi. from the fronts is about in the middle of the normal wear range...

Happy Motoring!... Jim'99
