Negative camber = inner tread wear. LSD = inside tread wear. Toe out =
inside tread wear.
You could reduce the camber until the wear is acceptable and/or your
performance drops off, the same for the toe. I'd set the toe to zero if
you're concerned with tread wear. That would help with the least adverse
effect to performance.
Maybe Heyward will chip in, he know much more about FWD cars than I
do. I've only driven one once in competition.
As Peter Fehn once told me, "They're supposed to wear like that, you want
to win don't you." 8^)
Your site says 26 runs on the tires, that's about all the Hoosier slicks
are good for. Then they are just regional tires.
