Default Camber on H&R + Koni's

Hey how is it going, pretty new to this board but i have so far learned a lot and found some people that have really helped me out. I am about to put my H&R Race springs with Koni struts on and i was just wondering if anyone has had any camber/caster/toe problems with this particular set up. I'm pretty sure this is a relatively common set up so i figured i would be able to get a good amount of feedback on it. Also if you decided to go with a camber kit which camber kit did u go with? What was the adjustability of the camber kit? thanks guys

nice, a local!! b.water mall is the shizznit.

to answer your question, i just installed neuspeed races (basically the same as H&R races) a month ago, and my camber LOOKS fine, but i'm getting an alignment soon to see if i really need one.

i've heard preludes don't have nearly as bad camber problems as civics and integra's usually do, and you can usually get by with just getting an alignment every year.

I put some H&R race springs on my car a few months ago and when i took it off the jack stands my car was f'in slammed. I like it, but its kinda low at times.

As far as tire wear issues i think i have a little too much negative toe in the front. Im def sure i have some serious negative camber as well, but im not as worried about that b/c the toe issue is whats causing all the tire wear in the front.

After you put the setup on i highly reccamend going to get your toe set to 0 (zero). Your gonna have some negative camber still, but as long as u rotate your tires and monitor tire preassure I dont think it should be a big deal.

I also remembered that some of the Koni's have multiple perch possitions, so that should help with limiting the effects of slamtacular from the springs.
