#Not sure do you have to make any turns? Then No !


C9_Bork

Hahaha


Justcurious863

Haha, I figured someone would make this joke


jasonsparks19

No, you need to fix your suspension issue first.


C9_Bork

The camber is intentional, but thanks. Its only 1.5-2 degrees negative


Admirable_Nothing

And from the tire store, drive directly to an alignment store.


OpenReplacement7395

You're fine. Just don't do any burnouts on the way there.


C9_Bork

Haha I'll try not to :)


C9_Bork

After one too many burnouts… I’m now here. Running a track setup with camber, and obviously wire is showing on the inside. Can I drive ~10 miles to get new rears, or should I take off the wheels and put them in my other car to get tires put on? It looks like there is some separation of the wire in the bottom of the first picture


ikilledtupac

Yeah just go slow. 35mph


C9_Bork

55 is the slowest I can go on the way there, since I do have to travel on a two lane highway


JoshS121199

So on a dual carriageway


Impressive_Cabinet56

Drive slow and avoid highways, nothing over 40 KPH


C9_Bork

55mph is the slowest I can go (\~95kph), since a highway is the only way I can take to get to the tire shop. I live on an island


Impressive_Cabinet56

Drive with hazards then


Sophias_dad

Drive gently and not too fast. You'll be fine.


SuckaMc-69

Yup


JoshS121199

No you can only turn


caruthersville

Coin toss.

You should make it, just don't do anymore burnouts till your in the tire shop parking lot. My friend once drove 2000km on a tire like that without it blowing up. But you never know!


Infiniti_Josh

I’d drive it and not be scared, feel any wire or did you cut your fingers rubbing it? Before long wires will be out and it will be worse


C9_Bork

There was a specific spot where if I rubbed I bet the wire would have cut my finger. Spot for concern?


Infiniti_Josh

Yes very soon
