How much does a camber and caster adjustment cost, and who does them??? Anyone other than dealers?
Would a camber kit be a better option? Are they hard to install?
Any info will help...thanks!

what car? what size wheels? has it been slammed?
I drive an 02 S3 and they are notorious in having wear on the fronts despite the cambers settings being correct,I had new suspension fitted months ago and was told not to have rear tie bars bars fitted.
the upshot is that my fronts can be adjusted but the rears cannot without tie bars fitted on my model.

That would have been a good thing to mention, haha. Its a 2000 TT Quattro.

Camber is usually what causes that problem, but toe issues could do it too. Get a full alignment and have them list all the specs they measure. You may find that camber is OK but toe is out of limits. That can tear up your tires' inside edges.
