rear camber 2006 mazda3 Sign In

 I hav a 2006 Mazda 3, 5-Door, 2.3L
The issue is excessive tire wear on the inside of the rear tires. The first set of tires wore properly. The second set has worn properly until recently when I noticed tire wear on the inside of the tires. I sdjusted the camber by the factory bolts but this hasn't helped. This adjustment also affects the goemetry overall. Something has changed. This is a stock automobile. Any ideas?

YOU adjusted the Camber? Without an alignment machine?


That was probably the worst mistake you could have made. You just totally messed up the alignment and you need to get it to an alignment shop ASAP. You can't move the Camber without precisely setting the toe after. Your wear is likely coming from tow and moving the Camber dramatically changes the toe.
