Take it to get it aligned and whoever does it will fix the negative camber.

Note:
I don't know about that rear camber kit, it was just used as a reference. I have the rhino front and it works pretty good. I've had it for a while and everything is ok with it.

Those kits suck. I used one and they are very terrible. You can only adjust it two ways, and they are made cheap..


Yes, Civic/CRX is the same as wagon as long as you stay year specific. (88-91)

Camber actually does only 10% of tire wear compared to toe. Maybe your wheels are aligned properly.

I used ingalls camber kit in the front (adjustable upper ball joints) and I used nothing in the rear. The rear is not the driving wheels if they are being worn down fast then you have more then just a camber issue. I'd look into worn bushings in the rear causing toe.

Is ur Wgn slammed?If not that camber wear maybe normal.Civic's tend to camber wear(for better handling)which is why you need to rotate the tires.You might start out with a alignment since it sounds like u ordered the kits.

like stated above camber alone isnt what kills your tires a lil bit of tow in or out along with some negative camber kills tires. and again like stated above dont buy that 2nd camber kit u listed above they are ghetto i know we sell them :roll:

yes i bought the brownwagonist white wagon i wanna lower about 1 more inch. I did not but the rear ones i found some that at least do not look as ghetto i hope. Thank you for your help guys.
