  1. I replaced tires this weekend. The person above mentioning the camber kit is correct. I have a 2007 RX350 and my son-in-law worked on the alighnment this weekend. He is an ASE Master and Toyota Master mechanic. The specification for rear camber on mine is -1.33. When finished the wheels actually looked turned inward. The reasoning for this spec is because it is better in a rollover situation as there is more tire to road surface in that situation. I hate it and he is going to look at it again when we can go there when he isn't busy. Even though that is the official spec, I want it set less so I don't go through tires like everyone else on this post. The noise was unreal before putting on the new ones and this is a luxury vehicle. I will take my chances on a rollover. The camber kit should work well as those supplied by Lexus are a preset size bolt (the shaft portion) without any eccentric as the kits have. I am curious if anybody has told them this reason or not. Apparently it is better to set it to specs for liability reasons and sell new tires.
