2011 Honda CRV rear tire wear/camber kit

195

Asked by BG374 Aug 16, 2017 at 12:55 PM about the 2011 Honda CR-V EX FWD

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

I bought a used 2011 Honda CRV about two years ago. Over time, I noticed
an odd wear to the rear inside tires (wavy), resulting in loud road noise. It
was due for tires, so I assumed an alignment was in order when I got the
new tires installed. Over time, I'm noticing the same type of wear in the rear
tires! I'm rotating every 6k miles. My CRV, like many out there, look as
though the rear tires slant inward from the top when looking from behind.
The dealership was useless, but recommended an aftermarket adjustable
camber kit. If this would help prevent the eating of the inside rear tires, I'll do
it but would like to know if anyone has gone this route. Thanks.

The Honda dealership inspected the rear suspension and found nothing wrong. Also had two alignments done there is the past 7 months. I only have 62,000 miles on it for a 2011, with mostly town/city driving. But notice the rear tires slant inward from the top. Just looks odd. Curious if an adjustable camber kit would even help the situation.

I had the same thing on a new Ford Focus. The dealer made me pay for the repair of installing the simms.
