What Camber kit? Barely Tucking...

I'm planning to drop my car so i can be barely tuckin into my fender on my 90 civic si. which type of front camber kit do you guys recommend me? thanks i need to find out quick. thanks again!

I got my alignment done, i'm still getting camber wear :-/ and i had my TOE set to ZERO.

 

have you ever replaced any of the rubber bushings on the car? statically, i'm sure they set it to exactly zero, but with deflection of worn bushings your dynamic toe will differ a lot.

 

I used a progress technology camber kit from andysautosport.com on my eclipse. I'm glad you posted this because i was wondering if u could really get by with just setting the toe to prevent tire wear. my common sense was saying no but i was a little hopeful .

 

Post your alignment print-out.

Also check your trailing arm bushings.

I agree with this post. Worn bushings and the uncontrolled alignment they cause are a serious concern for tire wear.

Having driven a little over 10k miles on a car with -4.75* of rear camber, on a rwd car, and not seeing any signs of "camber wear" in the back, I fully believe that toe (either static or dynamic) is the real cause of increased tire wear. Now, this car also has very shot steering rack bushings, resulting in quite a bit of dynamic toe changes (wanders everywhere), and I do have visibly increased wear on the front tires, but the rear tires look new. I should rotate them at some point...

Gotta love old British cars with saggy springs

On my front wheel drive eclipse, the rear tires were the ones wearing out extremely fast and not the fronts. i thought it would have been the other way around. I am going to fix my complete suspension setup from now on including camber instead of just messing around with one thing at a time. it gets expensive testing different things to see what is causing the wear.
