We took the Civic to the Alignment shop to diagnose the tire wear
problem. First step was two new tires on the front. Now, they offer two
ways to fix the problem--
install a camber kit for $240. or physically bend the knuckle dealy for
$55. each side.
Downside to the bending is if the suspension gets changed, ie: raised,
you have to rebend it. A camber kit would allow adjustment.

Bearing in mind this is the Frankenstein Civic (it looks great, but is
put together with multiple year parts), I'm leaning toward bending the
metal. Has anyone heard any horror stories from this method? Does this
increase the odds of something breaking?
