Worn Balljoint/ Tire Wear Question

I'm installing all new adjustable ball joints on my D30 this weekend. My camber has been bad on the passenger side for a while so the tire is coned slightly. I rotated the tires once to help but its pretty obvious coning.

Will the uneven tire wear prevent proper alignment after I install the new balljoints? I know it will ride like $hit until I get new rubber but can it be aligned right?

Thanks
 
if you only wore one side then regardless how good you get the alignment she might pull a bit to one side; perhaps more when you brake... But you could just drive on it a bit and wear it back the way you want it right? put those tires in the back and do some nasty burnouts! :flame:
 
Ya, the suspension alignment will technically be fine...if its pulling afterwords just rotate the tires from side to side, or move them front to rear...The burnout thing does work hahahaha.
