Yh I think 195/45/16s should do it. If not, I think there might be someone local with an arch roller

Camber won't wear tyres out more quickly if your toe is correct, it'll just wear unevenly but at the same rate.

Yh makes sence. Surely it would wear out a bit quicker then no camber as more weight/ pressure is on one side of the tyre and not evenly across the whole tyre
