Getting rid of the camber wear altogether won't happen, because of the way the suspension is designed though. But look at the tire size you're running! Comes with the territory. Speaking of which, what is the tire size exactly? Toyo Proxes 4 Plus might be the way to go, they have a treadwear of 540, you'd get much more life out of them compared to the cheapo brands like Nankangs.

New tires and alignment this week by a friend's shop so should be set.

Oddball size, didn't realize you were rocking 19"s.

Ask for a printout of before and after the alignment. Make sure they aren't just doing the front, too. Ask for a "four wheel alignment". Hopefully this helps out the camber issue.

Nothing special here. But I finally got it lowered. Not a whole lot, but enough for me, and to get rid of the 4x4 status

Looks sweet dude, first one I've seen lowerd and I like. Though I love the look of the SS cobalt, that wing bugs me, I think it would look good without one.

Only thing I would do different is take the damn stickers off the window.

Also do they make a dual exhaust for the cobalt? I feel that would look interesting instead of the single outlet.

I plan on buying a carbon fiber trunk, and going wingless.

But stikarz add more horsepowerz!

And they do make a dual exhaust. SLP makes it. It sounds good from the video they have on YouTube. I've thought about it. Still on the fence about what to do with the exhaust. The car currently has a MagnaFlow muffler welded in place of the stock one, and I like it. I'm just unsure on where to go with it once I do some power upgrades.

It'll be tricky finding wheels. 5x110 is an odd bolt pattern.
