Right rear wheel tilt
Hello all
My right rear wheel seems to be tilted in (Top in bottom out) causing the inside of the tire to wear and the outside looks new. Is this an alignment prob or something else?
Thanks for reading.

"wheel tilt" is known as camber. While you want some camber to help with handling, too much negative camber (top in bottom out) will cause your tire's inside shoulder to wear much faster. As long as nothing is bent/ broken on the suspension, its an alignment problem.

An alignment will straighten it up. It's just a little too much negative camber.
Take it to an alignment place that is familiar with 944's. It souldn't be over $180 at most for a good 4 wheel alignment.
