Default will this be a camber problem???

i would like to order the H&R race springs for my 92 si 4ws, but they say the front is 1.9 drop and the back is 1.6. will the 1.9in drop cause camber problems in the front? i dont trust camber kits and i dont want to be replacing my tires all the time due to camber wear..... anyone know how low before camber problems?

i dont know how long it will be before u start having tire problems but ive heard from different ppl that for as long as ur under a 2 inch drop u dont need a camber kit that bad but thats just what i have read, of course anytime u lower ur car it will put more stress on the car/tires so dont be suprised if u have to change ur tires more often than normal

i think it'll be alright.

should put you at roughly -1.5 degrees of camber, which isn't so bad.

well, there is no skunk2 kit for our cars.

the choices are ingalls (anchor bolts) vs. spc (ball jt) for the fronts.

the spc's are preferred, since the ingalls has a tendency to make your upper control arm beat the crap out of the wheel well.

the spc does it too, but it's not as bad.
