I didn't think rim width and LSD or non-LSD had a major effect on tire
wear... so I'd be curious to hear technical standpoints on that.
But, something you don't mention, but I am guessing... is that your DSP
Integra has some pretty stiff springs up front and doesn't allow much body
roll. In my experience, stiffer springs means less negative camber
needed... but I have a strut suspension.
Your double wishbones probably get more negative camber on compression, but
I only think too much negative camber would be bad on a stiffly sprung car.
Do you have any street tires you could put on? They will feather the edges
quickly to tell you if your problem is from toe. I accidentally had around
3/8's total toe out on my Probe once and took a long trip. That chewed the
tires up really bad. I run 0-toe all over for better tire wear.
