Camber kit advice
 

I just got some polished 2000 Si wheels for my 2000 Ex and put brand new Kumho Ecsta ASX tires on them. I really want to get a front and rear camber kit soon so I dont waste these tires.

I'm really leaning towards Skunk2 but any suggestions would be helpful.

I found the Skunk2 front and rear camber kit combo for $295 shipped on Ebay... is this a decent price?

how low is your car? get a proper alignment and call it a day.

i bought some omni A-arms for the front to correct camber on my 96 lx and they are great! cheaper than skunk if i remember... but the ball joints they include aren't great quality..

My car is lowered 2.5 inches. Every shop I take it to says I have to get a camber kit before they can align it. It needs to be aligned badly so I want to go with a camber kit. Plus the last set of tires I had on my old wheels wore so badly on the inside that the wires started showing while the outside tread was near perfect.

Does anyone have any input on Skunk2 ball joints?

what your describing there is toe wear, toe is correctable on a civic and can be fixed with a proper alignment. get an alignment. unless you plan on tracking your car often, or need to tuck your big donk rimz save the money on the camber kit and get your car aligned your tires and wallet will thank u

When I first lowered it about a year ago I had the toe corrected or aligned. The tires still bow in... mainly on the rear but on the front also. And the car is tracked nearly every Friday night.

then id throw on a camber kit at all corners

Thats what I was thinking... so thats settled. Thanks H22Ej1! Now can I get some reviews and input on brands and prices of camber kits... especially Skunk2.

go with the skunk2!!!, i picked up a set of front/rear for my em1 from ebay for $275, and the ball joints they provide will work just fine

Thanks for the input elektronsi... I'm going to pick up the front/rear Skunk2 camber kit from ebay for $295 just as soon as my nitrous kit sells.

good choice, your gonna love it, hopefully your not rollin on 17's with a dropped car, ive got 45 series tires with eibach springs on my EM1 and ive got some tire rub, but rolling the fenders helped a lot, with 16's or 15's you wont have a problem

I dunno if you saw it in the first post or not but I have 99-00 si wheels on my car. My old wheels were 17s tho haha.
