I just bought a 98 civic with coilovers on it. It was dropped pretty low and I think it may have been driven rather rough. The tires are sorta leaning in and I was wondering what I could do to fix it. I know I can get a camber kit but what are my other options? If camber kit is the only thing, I need suggestions on a good kit. I checked out eBay to see what kinda prices kits were going for and there were some cheap kits for like .99 plus shipping and then there were kits all the way up to 400 bucks. I would like to stay cheap, but still effective. Please help. Thanks a bunch.

I just got rid of my old junk/skank2 camber arms and upgraded to the new spc set....theyre SOOO much better.
I really like the design and the added caster adjustability is a nice touch

Get the Ingolls camber kit.. its cheap and works great.. easy to put on also..

The Mista Mike

How cheap are we talking here? Also, what do I need to look for in a kit. Adjustability? Angles? What?

On a side note... how long do we stay in trial mode thinger?

You get exactly what you pay for...keep that in mind.
I paid $250 for the spc set - worth every cent.
They can handle drops up to 3" and are very beefy.

I used the old bolt and washer trick. Its been on for two years now and no problems. Definitly saves my tires life. Only works on the back tires though. Best damn $5.00.

The Mista Mike

So how do I do this bolt and washer trick? The only ones that are in dire need are the rear tires anyway. Will this hold up to everyday driving? Have you had to replace them or anything in the two years?

I probably won't be able to post any responses until tonight due to the 5 post rule, so please give me as detailed instructions as possible. THANKS A BUNCH!

the front tires will suffer the most. since they are usually dropped lower than the rears. unless it's just me. the washer trick is easy from what i've heard. do a search, there will be pics that show up. i highly suggest a camber kit. since i need to get some for mine as well. i've replaced my tires within the last two years and they shouldn't lose wear this early.

Sprints camber kits are really good.

SPC or INGALLS are good for the front and washers in the back

that works well for the rear,

i have always used the progress camber kit, i never paid more than 140 for the front, worked great on every car i have had.

i have the spc kit on the rear and the skunk2 kit on the front... only complaint i have is that the front skunk2 kit bottoms out when i have the front of my car lowered beyond a certain point.

I have not had to replace my camber kit, bolt and washer. Just do a search on how to do it.
