wheel alignment........
i need help on my alingment.........cause i lowered my car with tien ss and my camber is soo bad......what measurement should i set my alingment.........
I don't think you full understand what an alignment is. When a shop aligns your car, they adjust toe, caster, and camber (all of these terms can be Googled). The problem is that Honda's don't have adjustable camber, so you need to buy a camber kit. Once installed, take it to a shop and they'll adjust it to where it's correct. There is no "universal setting" that we can tell you to put your camber in spec. For a camber kit, I recommend Ingals. What ever you do, don't cheap out and get a $40 eBay or OBX kit. A camber kit is a very important part of your suspension, and an inferior part can be extremely unsafe
Just get the front only. On the rear, buy 8 washers from Home Depot and install it in rear control arm, two washers per bolt, there is two bolts for each arm. Do one bolt at a time so you won't have to struggle putting it back, just loosen the bolts enough to where you can slide the washers in. That should take care of your rear camber. >$3.00
WTF are you talking about?
Our rear control arms bolt in parallel to the wheel, putting washers in there wouldn't do anything if you could even fit them....you would have to trim the bushing/sleeve in the end of the arm to get them in there....
OP: just have your tow adjusted, the camber doesn't matter. I have the same springs, if you zero out the tow your tires will wear fine

If you buy the camber kit the shop will align it to the factory specs. I was an alignment tech for 5 years at sears. The machine has all the info the tech needs to adjust them properly so just buy the kit take it and the car to the shop and let them do the rest.

Normally they only adjust caster and toe because you can't adjust camber on factory Honda suspension. If you have a camber kit and your dealer has an alignment rack, they can do it

Depends on how low, but if you get your toe to normal, your tire wear will be slower, but still to the inside of your tires because you camber will be off. The best way to think of it is if you're going lower than 1.5" you def need a camber kit
