Camber on my 02 accord sedan is NON-ADJUSTABLE.
You cant adjust the stock camber on an accord ( Rear that is )

^^^^ 6th gen accords have no camber adjustmant at all. Maybe moving other things around could slightly change your camber but then they would be out of spec. My rear is -2.2 and the front is -0.8 i have been like that for a long time and tires don't get a huge beating.

wow...-2.2 that seems kinda out of line there......Hows your tire wear?
Have you looked at it?
This is what my rear toe did to my RL tire.
Notice how it does appear to be the camber out of spec.
In Fact my toe was " All F****d Up " quoting the tech that did my alignment.

buffalobill: THe width of the tire shouldn't have an effect on the severity of wear. Both a wide and skinny tire would have the same angle against the road surface. I can't verify it, but i think lowering air pressure, or at least not having it rock solid, would prolong the life of the tire since more of the tire would touch the ground. This is just my thinking though.
flyromeo: i got over 20k out of some yokohama avs/es100 but that is with very agressive driving. I also asked my allignment guy to set the toe to zero in the rear.
