S-Tecs killing my tires...Help

Ok I installed Tein S-Tecs like the 2nd month I had my car. I went with the stock factory alignment settings and I have been tearing through rear tires like crazy. The car even looks like it has a CRAZY amount of negative rear camber and it's killing the inside edges of my rear tires.

Any suggestions on rear or full alignment specs? I'm sick of buying new tires.

Did you do an alighnment with stock specs?? or did you leave the alighnment the same as it was?? Will make a big difference.

When I dropped mine 3/4 in the camber and toe in on the front changed a lot.....

If your eating tires get a good alignment and see what's up.

A lot of us are running around -1.5 deg camber front and rear and zero toe....

The front is perfect, but the rear just seems to have excessive neg camber. I did the alignment using stock specs about a week after letting the springs settle.
