Just recently installed some megan coilovers with stock struts on my 1998 civic. And i noticed today that the wheels sit kind of crooked from a rear view. They are slighty tilted in an angle. I believe everything was installed correctly. Strus brough all the way back up and properly assembled and mounted. All control arm bolts bolted back into place tightly. Not sure what is causing this though. I was thinking either an alignment is needed or different struts since these werent really designed to be lowered. Thanks.

tire is cambered. get camber kit or bigger bolts, and an alignment

yeah you got negative camber. Camber kit will fix it right up. There is a DIY on here for i think a blox or skunk2 camber kit. Also you should get an allighnment because your toe is probably off too and your tires are going to wear out real quick.

dont buy a rear camber kit...waste of moeny. Just do the washer trick and you'll be fine. I've been using the washer trick for 3 years and its been working perfectly.

Damn that washer trick is pretty nifty. I love cheap DIY's that work! Anything like that for front camber adjustment?

No the washers only work in the rear.

Fronts need a kit. Progessauto.com makes the best one I've seen.

Call Joey at Progress and tell him rota92 sent you. Our car is on there web site.

a little camber doesn't hurt. just get an alignment done and get your toe to factory specs
