Default prelude bb2 suspsension Q's : (camber kit) for H&R ON toE-kico HP's

So I have H&R sport springs under my bed. Planning to get the Toe-Kico Blues Soon. (1.3" drop.)HR seem really good, not jdm but who can see it anyhoo (made in Germany) . I got it for a buck brand new so okay....(Teins are made in china now)

Was thinking....Should I get Camber Kit? worth it?
Ingalls? $250 vs. $50 Ebay?


FYI:
I am running Pirelli tires and THESE TIRES ARE WORTH EVERY PENNY!
TOYO FZ4 ARE THE WORST I'VE ever had. Blew 2 new toyos in 2 weeks!
Falken Ziex are good.
Pirelli= Pretty darn awwwwwesome!

after you put your suspension on get an alignment, then you'll know if you need a camber kit.

camber kits aren't really necessary if you're concerned about tire wear

i was wondering about camber kits as well.. would you recommend offset anchor bolts or offset balljoints? balljoints are way more expensive.. because theyre better? or because theyre a more complicated part?

and as stated before get an alignment before you buy a camber kit. you may not need one. or if you do, youll know how much adjustment youll need to get.

lol nice....haha

and why do you feel the need to type toE-kico??

plikit, you need to review the options available for adjusting camber on preludes.....the suspension design doesn't allow for camber adjustment like on civics and integras....take the back for instance...

the camber is adjusted though adjusting the length of the rod that connects the top of the trailing arm to the chassis, pulling and pushing the top angles the wheel, aka camber...

but, on a prelude, the rear suspension uses an upper a-arm, and a ball joint.....in order to adjust the camber there, you must adjust the ball joint....

now that i finish typing that i think i understand your question, no, you do not want to offset the anchor of the arm, as this will screw up the angle the ball joint sits at and over-stress it....get the adjustable ball joints.....just be careful up front if you go too low they will stab through the shock tower in the oh-so-weak location that some unnamed genius just thought to mount a strut bar to....
