Hey guys.... I bought an 02 Jaguar x-type this spring and when I brought it to get inspected, the shop said I needed rear lower control arms... I had them do this and since then the camber has been off drastically. I had purchased the car with new tires, and not even 4,000 miles on them now the steel band is showing on the rear, while the front tires are perfect. Any kind of insight as to what to look into for fixing this would be greatly appreciated.... Thanks in advance!

The problem you describe is a common one that many of us fixed on our X-Types. The tops of the rear tires lean in, causing premature wear of the inner tire tread. Fortunately Chris "Thermo" found a brilliant solution and shared it in this thread:
