23274, Question about Eibach Pro-kit springs & Camber kits
Posted by Scarface, Mar-28-04 04:34 AM
Hey guys, I did some searching, but I just want to make sure...Did any of you guys need front camber kits? I have the rear camber kits, but I just wanted to know if I needed to buy front camber kits? Thanks

Most people with Pro-Kit's do not need front camber correction. When i was still on prokits my front camber was at -1 to -1.3. Personally -1 camber is not something to worry about.

Really? or maybe you just had bad alignment? All I did was the $15 rear mod and that's it.

I didn't originally think I needed them. I did the $15 rear, got an alignment and thought all was well. Here we are a year or so later and I need new tires because on all four the inside edge is showing steel belt. I think I got a print off of someone elses car and that they never checked mine. I am a bit pissed!! I hate f'ing mechanics. They either did it wrong or didn't do it at all.

With prokits installed i am at -3* camber in the rears and -2.5* in the fronts. I had my toe adjusted to specs. On my second set of tires so i need a camber kit.

Damn guys that sucks, front kits are expensive. I did the $15 mod and rear camber was dead on, front is about -1.3* camber which is helpful for turn in and cornering. I haven't experienced any abnormal wear.


Turning is fun too!
