Hey people, My RS-V is wearing all 4 tyres on the inside pretty badly, I'm going to be getting BC coilovers to suit the model and am wondering if there are other parts I should be buying and doing at the same time to reduce the amount of inside wear.

Toe/camber arms etc.

Any advice welcome.

It's running standard suspension atm + whiteline swaybars.

my biggest issues (once i worked out the adjustable camber arms cos thats your first issue) was my rear toe. chewed through a rear set kinda quickly.
i had BC BR coilovers on my RS4-S quite low.
even when i ran negative camber, with the correct toe settings and a little more front caster, my wear was minimal for daily and highway driving.

Had an alignment when tyres were last changed about a year ago.

The rears look worse than the fronts. Could you provide links for what you have bought. Front Camber, Rear Camber, Front Caster and Rear Toe.

I bought Cusco castor and camber arms for the front or if you just want a small amount of adjustment you can get adjustable bushes.

Can't remember the brand of the rear camber arms but you probably won't need "toe arms" you should have enough adjustment already.

Seems odd to just buy bits when they may make no difference. I would get a trusted suspension shop to take a look first, and replace any of the factory stuff that's worn out, eg. ball joints, tie rod ends and bushes. Got any decent shops in your area?

Also, if you intend to lower via the BC's, you may need a bunch more bits to be able to get the alignment right again after the drop. What you need will depend on how low you go, so decide that first. For skylines there were a bunch of SydneyKid group buys that had all that info. I dont know if he did any Stagea group buys.
