excessive rear camber?
Okay.. I got the car aligned last year and the guy never said anything... and I'm pretty sure it hasn't changed, but when you look at the rear wheels from behind the car they look like they have like 5deg of -camber. Is there something wrong here?
The rear tires seem to wear the insides quicker than the outside, too....

Two words: RACING BEAT!!! They sell a rear camber adjuster for the FC that will correct your problem. It only costs $105. My last FC (an '88 SE) had the same problem, and I really noticed it when I installed wider wheels. I ended up going through a set of rear tires evey 1500 miles because the insides of the tires were wearing to the point where I could see the cords showing!!! I sold it before I fixed the problem though. Recently, my friend (who's got a '91 Turbo II) just bought wider wheels and when we installed them, he had the same problem. So I had him buy the RB camber adjuster---only took like 20 mins to install, and it fixed the problem!! Just put it on yesterday actually.
