Nitto NeoGens
I don't usually frequent the wheel and tire section but I'm stretching the limits of my comfortability because I need tires. I was doing my researching as usual before I start a new thread.
I read in a thread that the Nitto NeoGens wear evenly on cambered cars. Can anyone vouch for this?
Here is my car. I go through tires like it's nothing. I would like to keep my camber the way it is for now.
Thanks for the help.

dont know how they would achieve this aside from a different compound on the inside.
But I had those on my civic hatch back in the day and they sucked as far as tires go, so why ****ty tires on a perfectly capable car with such a high potential?

How much camber are you running? Doesn't look like much in the pic. Anything lower than -2, maybe even -2.5, should not effect camber ware too much. I researched alot on this before doing my alignment. If all you're worried about it camber ware, might as well buy the cheapest tires available, or not run so much camber.

for dd and drag don't see a reason to run a lot of camber.. -1.75 or less on the front and -.75 or less in the rear... depending on your driving of course. If you use those as starting points only, and your driving is limited to what you have described, then there is no reason a 250+ tire can't handle 15k-20k miles... just do your search for a decent tire...

Ive ridden the tires once and ill never ride on them again. The neogens suck in the rain and they were terrible when I had the -2 offset, they wore horribly and i maybe had 7000 miles on them

If you are worried about your alignment and what not & you don't have a problem driving a little bit I would def. suggest checking out Performance Chassis...
http://www.performance-chassis.com/
Jim is 1 of the main techs there & has an evo himself that he tracks a lot. He can set you alignment anyway you want, aggressive, not aggressive, counter weight, etc, etc....
He is the only person in NC that I would let touch my suspension....

I run -3.5* front camber on my car and don't experience much camber wear. This is a primarily track vehicle, but it does get driven on the street a fair amount. I also check alignment constantly to ensure I have zero toe. Massive wear almost always comes from toe, not camber issues in my experience.
