My 2008 XC70 chewed through a set of tires in just 20,000 miles and I think most of the chewing on the inside tire shoulder was due to a high negative camber setting in the rear suspension. If your Toe adjustment goes out in the rear suspension you are basically dragging the inside tire edge that leads to excessive wear and short tire life in just a few thousands miles. I checked new XC70's and they also seem to have a large negative rear camber. My rear camber is set to the maximum per VADIS specifications. No adjustment can be made to camber or caster. Why does safety conscious Volvo want our tires to wear rapidly possibly creating a dangerous tire condition?
