My LR tire is cupping after I put Roush springs on there. Any way to avoid this? Is this normal on the rear?

The rear do wear a little funking. Just gotta keep up with rotations, maybe try different tire pressures. An adjustable rear camber kit would be nice, but I think only a few of those were made a while back by SHOshop and I don't think they were made very well, IIRC.

How about no. So first you think they were made and then they were made poorly. The rear can not be adjusted. You might have a defective tire Dave. Rotations are always good as well.

Describe your wear exactly. Cupping usually implies improper tire inflation.

Andy W. The problem with America is stupidity. I'm not saying there should be a capital punishment for stupidity, but why don't we just take the safety labels off of everything and let the problem solve itself?

I could have sworn somebody (maybe not SHOshop) made something that made your rear camber adjustable. It replaces some part of the suspension, not just an add-on thing. Though very few were made. Anyways I'm almost positive I saw something about these over a year ago, but I could be wrong, that's why I put IIRC.
