negative camber tire wear
How much will I wear my front tires driving 175 mi to the track and back with -1.75 camber, or should I put the wear on a different set of tires?
Tires aren't too bad now, but after 2 days at the track I don't think there will be much rubber left on them.
Am I worrying a lot about nothing?
Thanks

Typically it's toe that wears tires, not camber. Toe in (or out) causes the tires to fight each other and drag them sideways across the pavement.
-1.75° is not all that much camber. Tire / sidewall flex can handle that even for daily driving.
