If the back end toe adjustment is out it can steer the car and you compensate with the steering wheel so essentially crabbing along.. Camber alone generally wont wear out your tyre quickly but combine it with toe being out or in, it will chew the outer or inner wall of the tyres off. With my L serie...

The tendancy to go to the left is generally due to the camber of the road.

I fitted some bigger front shockies to level out my L series and continued designing my rear tyre carrier/rear bar. Lifted the front from 720mm from ground to top of wheel arch to 790mm. But the back is 780mm and also found the rear shockie bottom bush is flogged out making the tyre rub on the sprin...
