Default Suspension question. Please help?

when i was changing the brakes of my car the other day, i noticed the tread on my front tires were really abnormally balding. the inside of the tires were bald while the outside part were still fine. so i brought my 08 tC to the dealer today to get a tire rotation. they said that they couldnt fix the camber to how theyre suppose to be because i had the car lowered. i have tein s-techs lowering springs. is there anyway i can fix the suspension of my car so that the tires wont bald so uneven? thanks.

yeah camber wear does happen when you lower your car if you want to try and fix the camber i would suggest getting camber bolts for the front and camber arms for the rear.

Are you sure the toe is zeroed out? Toe does more damage than camber. Toe is fixable on the stock set-up.
