I had the same problem, was told when you lower the car, it'll cause the camber to go off.

Demon tweeks do Camber adjusting bolts for about £20, they can bring it 3-5mm each way i believe, but they sorted mine!

lowering it 60 will also affect the camber. the tracking although will bring it in a bit better, it still wont be right. for ghetto camber, you can elongate the hole in the shocker, where it bolts to the hub.

I have this problem on my 2.0 corsa, it is lowered 60 mm on the back and 45 mm on the front, G-max supersport shocks and springs all round, new tyres last about 6 weeks at the very most on the front untill the insides of both of them are worn through to the cords. I work in a garage and do tracking evry day, checked mine time and time again so it can only be the camber that is out, how do i solve this problem?

camber bolts, adjustable top mounts, or elongate the top hole in the shocker a touch.
