Default Rear passenger tire wear on 2010 sti..

Ok, what the hell is going on here?

The stock tires wore quickly on the inside of the passenger side rear tire. I had the car aligned and have since put rce yellows in it and had it aligned again with the following specs.



With this alignment and new tires its still wearing the passenger side rear and not wearing the driver side nearly as much.

-1.8 camber too much I wonder?



Why is this happening? My friend is blaming the bushings for being too soft or being bad in the car but I cant see it since the car isnt far from new.

The car is making a fair amount of power now (400hp/400tq) and I do a lot of pulls in it. Could the deflection in the stock bushings be enough to wear the tire like this?

I don't think it's normal to have nearly -2° in the back but under -0.5° up front...

The sad part is that it's still an improvement.
