I've recently been working on my winter beater putting on kyb agx and skunk2 springs, ES front and rear lower control arm bushings and sway bar end link bushings, and integra front hubs/brakes. The car has some stupid UCA camber kit and I noticed after the install the front left tire had a ton of possitive camber. I moved it in so it looked good to the eye. I finished doing some work to it today and took it for a ride and my front tires are screaming even when going straight around 25mph. Ive lowered a bunch of cars before and never had this problem. Its my first time doing the ES bushing install which seemed to go very smoothly and the integra big brake conversion.

Is it possible my alignment is so far out of whack that its making my tires beg for mercy? They are pretty beat tires at that, like 3/32 but they didnt do this before. I work in a shop so doing my own alignment isn't a problem but I was hoping drive the thing to get it settled before I did the alignment.

Please someone give me some input that have seen or had this problem before.

 

Take out the camber kit and put your OEM arms in, then get an alignment done to get toe zero'd out. Problems solved.

I plan on taking out the current camber kit to upgrade to a better one. Using Integra front knuckles for the big brake conversion you need a camber kit to correct the positive camber that the Integra parts give you on an ef.

Ok update.

I ended up staying extra late to throw the car up on the alignment rack.

I had 4 degrees of positive toe on both sides and 3 degrees of postive camber on the driver and 4 degrees positive on the passenger. I got everything in spec and took it out for a drive. It felt like it drove much much better no more fast steering, but it was raining cats and dogs the 2nd time I drove it so I was exactly able to hear any sqeeling going on. I'll drive to tomorrow and hopefully it be good, if not I'm going back to the civic front brakes.

 

Update:

Drove the car home last night, without it raining, from my shop and it rode great no more messed ups steering or tire squeel.
