insane tire wear with progress springs

Hey ...

I took my tires off and i have INSANE tire wear on the inside of both rear wheels ... when i look at the back of the car they look like / \.

I got an alignment when i first put them on ...

Do i need a camber kit?

Is this normal for the Progress drop?

Thx

its normal with any drop, you do need a camber kit to correct that, or quit taking turns so quick/fast

The place you got your wheels aligned at should have told you that you needed a camber kit after the alignment.

Next time you get your wheels aligned ensure that the mechanics perform both Toe AND Camber alignment.
