Thomas, On wide tired Pantera's, I set my rear camber to zero.  I get even
wear.

     This was the case with my previous two sets as well.
     Most of the mileage is with a fair amount of luggage as it happens
     on our trips to the continent or club events.
     Iave had the wheels aligned twice, but always with no load. The rear
     sits fairly low on our trips, giving it a fair amount of negative
     camber.
     Should I load up the trunk and do a new alignment?
     Although most driving is with load, I donat want to have the car
     look stupid when unloaded.
     It is a GT5 btw, with 345/35x15 tires.
