Daverino Posted November 14, 2008 Share Posted November 14, 2008 I have an '05 Outback XT manual and have noticed since I bought it 3+ years ago that the outer shoulders of my tires are wearing much more than the inner shoulder. Is this typical of Outbacks? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ilh Posted November 14, 2008 Share Posted November 14, 2008 Outback front/rear camber: +0.67/-0.16 degrees Legacy front/rear camber: -0.25/-0.67 degrees (according to 2005 vacation pix) That would certainly contribute to the issue with more positive/less negative camber (wheels leaning outward more) compared to Legacy. --Lee Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OhBe1 Posted November 15, 2008 Share Posted November 15, 2008 We've been able to get -0.7 deg front on our '05 LOB, and there is still some outer wear. Toe is 0.05 in. 06LOB2.5i MT, JDMRSB, GYTTs, HPS, LGT Mufflers & Leather Wheel, SubiMomo Knob, Inalfa Moonroof, Clutch Switch Bypass, DeDRLd, DeChimed, & Straight Headrest.

TimGinCentralNJ Posted November 19, 2008 Share Posted November 19, 2008 I have an '05 Outback XT manual and have noticed since I bought it 3+ years ago that the outer shoulders of my tires are wearing much more than the inner shoulder. Is this typical of Outbacks? Same here and I'm not a terribly aggressive driver in the corners. It **seems** that this may be typical for our cars given the camber settings and AWD's tendency to much tires. Tim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
