Right front tire wearing!

The car is a 2002 ss with 32k miles. The car was lowered when I bought it. I replaced the springs and had the car aligned. Since the car was raised back to stock ride hight it has pulled to the right. It has worn out the outer side of the right front tire. I replaced all four tires and took it back to the shop doing the alignment and they said it was in spec. They say they could not find anything wrong. I was thinking about when reinstalling the front sway bar. I seem to remember mabe tightning the link to much. Could this effect tire wear? Once again it it only one tire. Also could the pull be caused by the rear end being out of alignment? The car does have a adj. panhard rod and lca's. Thanks in advance!

Re: Right front tire wearing!

Ok just pulled the alignment specs. Everything is in the green except THRUST ANGLE.... Could this effect the pulling and tire wear?

The spec is at -0.17 with an *This value is not within specification. Tire wear, handling, and safty problums may result. Is this something to worry about?
