im gonna have new springs (tein s-techs 1.5 drop) on my 4th gen lude with koni yellows. and special way i should have the guy tune my suspension so i get the best handling and not have any bad tire wear. rite now i have a camber kit on the car with neuspeed springs but its too low. toe or camber degree?

* sparknotes... any special alignment specifications to tell the guy that does the alignment?

 

Where did you get the camber kit i have been looking for one for my car. How much did it cost.

OMG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!11111111111111111111111!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


why not just post it here. dude, you most likely dont even need the camber kit.

also, when it comes to camber, toe, etc. its honestly personal preference. more camber = better handling (to a certan extent) but also more wear.

 

usually dont people adjust the front camber and leave the rear alone?

usually people do that for tire clearance issues.

for handling, he'll want more camber up front then in the rear.

The size of the rim & profile of the tire will dictate how much camber you can get away with without wearing the tires to fast.

 

Also, you'll want more negative camber if you have taller tires. Like for a 15" wheel.

 

By more camber you mean more negative camber... anyone can benefit from more camber for handling but as stated you wear tires on the inside and lose traction in a straight line. A good tech should be able to line your car up within spec without a kit, unless your drop is so low everytime you hit a crack something bottoms out.

Also if you set your toe to postive .10 degrees postive on both sides you achieve .00 at higher speeds...this is used in nascar and other applications. Most cars toe is set somewhat postive to allow for this...but it is something you can mess around with if you have an alignment rack and some time. Adjusting caster (on some vehicles) can give it a firmer suspension as well, also can make for one hell of an uncomfortable ride, and "unstable steering". however if you play around with them long enough and have enough patience to get your numbers right on you can feel the effects of the hard work. Most shops WILL set Toe and let your car right out the door. Ask for specs from your alignment to be printed off so you can see what degree each element is set to. You will probably have to pay for more than just a regular alignment if you want everything more than just 'in the green' but it may be worth it.
