You said in one of your other posts dealing with the same camber concerns the shop told you your camber readings were -0.6 and -1.0.
Now you are saying -0.6 and -0.1.
Which is it??

It has also been mentioned it's normal for the front tires to lean in at the top.

If you think the hubs are bad, jack up each front wheel, grab the tire top and bottom, and try to wiggle the wheel. If it has no play, and is quiet when you spin the wheel, it's most likely a good hub.
