*cough* called camber

You are running excess negative camber from the sound of things.

You can buy aftermarket arms/plates for adjustment, or whiteline make some bushes(which i use) which should be able to manage the job!

Follow this with a good wheel alignment and see how you go...

I also reccomend increasing positive castor if possible, it will change the camber as the steering wheel is turned! Whiteline also make a bush for this, or you can get an aftermarket arm.

Wade, get yourself a GOOD wheel alignment, and get all the settings adjusted.

a decent aligner will ask questions about your driving style, because this will determine where abouts in the range your settings will be for best tire wear.

Where abouts are you located, as people here might be able to suggest a good aligner for you.

Yes the camber kit should fix the problem.

My rear tyres are the same, I told my mechanic to lower the car and its low to legal limit.

I get more ware on the inner side of the tyre and he said the same thing, need a camber kit to stop the inner side waring out faster.

Yeh camber is the problem but R33's do need the camber kit as there is no other way of adjusting it....

I've got mine pulling left cuz of it but am waiting to replace the whole setup.
