going bald
 
I have a 99 eclipe gst and my three month old Fluda tires in the rear are going bald on the outside half. I havn't lowered my eclipse or done anyting to the suspension. Does anyone know the cause of my problem? do I need a camber kit or something?

Your back wheels are "toed out" meaning they need to be adjusted and aligned...

Yeah, you should be unless there is something that is bad and or broken to make them that way.

yea wear on one side probably means you have a camber issue. but also what pressure do you keep your tires at? i kno the car reccomends 32 /29psi but thats way too low for any high performance soft tire. i kno for my falkens and for my toyos i have always kept my pressure at around 38/35 so they will wear evenly
