Hi,

I had some suspension work done at the front of my car some time ago (lower/ upper ball joints, suspension control arm) but only had the front wheel tracking done (not very reliable/ accurate set up).

Recently when the car was lifted on the ramps (to check the wheel bearing play), I found that the bottom of rear wheels moved in slightly (negative camber) when the car was jacked up. To add to horror, the inside edge of both rear tyres (almost new) is getting worn on both sides.

The bearings on all 4 wheels were found OK. The wheel/ tyre sizes are original.

The mechanic said this car needs 4 wheel tracking but I could not find a way to adjust the negative camber.

Could it be something else like bushes/ more serious?

Thanks.
