So it looks like I had too much camber setup front cause my front tires outer tread does not have the lines in it anymore on the stock RE70's for my sti.

The back tires have lots of tread... is it safe to put the front tires to the rear? IE: is it better to have more tread on the front tires or the rear?

We aren't talking bald tires... just the front two on the outer edges where they have the curvy lines it's bare... the inside and middle of the tire still have plenty of tread.

Thanks,
-Nigel
=============
If the outsides are worn it's more likely you have too little [negative] camber - i.e. you are rolling over towards the sidewall. You should be fine rotating them back - the rear usually has more negative camber from the factory, so they should even up over time - just don't go 10/10ths until you get a feel for any change in grip / handling.

I'd recommend getting an alignment anyhow.

^+1 Check your alignment and tire pressure.

Sounds more like toe that wipes out tires than camber but +1 on the alignment
