1.5 all around. i read somewhere someone with a similar drop that it wont be enough to need a camber, but it would still be nice to have one.

Default INSTALLED PICS







these springs ride fairly. its very smooth, but bumpy when the road is tore up ofcourse.

if you notice in the last picture my rear camber is pretty bad. does everyone have this too? the drop is 1.5 inch all around, but no one else mentioned bad cambers when installing STechs or Eibachs.

gettin the rear camber kit soon. leave some info, thanks!

it's wierd because with the 8th gens, you lower em.. and the rears camber - fronts stay straight. On like 6th gens... lower em... front cambers... rears hardly (but do) camber... it's a trip

mine def. cambered on the s-techs, but IMHO it doesn't warrant spending money on a camber kit other than bling factor. the rears just roll.. no power or anything to them, so the tires don't wear much at all.. I usually just buy to fronts.. cheaper than buying all fours at one time. hey.. this how i do it.. others may not agree, but works for me since i can't always afford a set of four at the drop...

haha i get megan **** for cheap, thats why my car is laced with megan parts. they need to make an intake lol

thanks for the info, your the rears are really noticable. i wanted to get the rear camber kit just to make it look properly, and not so much the tire wear. but i do check my rear treads each time i take a drive.

i was thinking of getting 16" or 17" slipstreams.


also, i just recently rotated my tires, so my worn down tires are in the back, and my good ones are in front. now that my car is dropped and the camber problem arose, should i put the good ones in the back for longer life? or keep it the way it is?
