set at 800/1200. I have excessive camber wear in the front tires. I was told that an alignment would not correct this. The mechanic stated that the camber wear is due to the control arms and that a bolt on kit would be required to alleviate this problem. I have had the coilovers on for about 6 months and the front two tires are shot. What are my options?

if you are too low that will cause increased camber and wear issues with the front tires. I can only think of 2 things you can do. maybe others will chime in with other ideas.

1. Raise the car up some. How low are you?

2. Buy and install adjustable upper control arms. This way you dictate the about of camber you want.
