Well, my 18" rims n tires are finally on, and I love them except the front ones are at a different angle than the rear ones. The front leans out farther, but the rears look almost pefectly square.

Someone please tell me this is normal.

Not normal, your camber is off. What was the offset of the rims your bought?

I have to dig out the papers, or go inspect the rim cause I forget the offset. It should be for a 95 max though. The guy I went through is good.

Its not a major difference, its really very slight, but I'm crazy about keeping the rims perfect so I notice.

Do you have lowering springs, BTW? And if you do, did you get an alignment?

Stock suspension for now.....

...and it has 125,000 miles on it!! Thats my next move though, my suspension is shot beyond recognition. My rear actually is so much lower than my front, but my front has a big gap. I'm in 4x4 mode.

My tire pressure is around 40 and the front tires still look a bit low.

I haven't had an alignment in who knows how long, but I plan on getting it serviced and aligned and the whole 9 yards before September school driving starts.

Thanx for stayin with me.
