Civic and Integra cars have a small amount of toe adjustability in the rear already. It's purely optional if you want it. I'd opt for a camber kit over a toe kit. Camber isn't adjustable without a kit.

you don't want toe in the rear in the first place unless you REALLY know what you're doing and are pushing your car to the limit ON A TRACK. even then, 95% of people run 0 toe, which can be attained with the oem adjustments unless something on your car is bent.

maybe around your 40th weekend at the track will you even think about touching your rear toe. save your money for now... it's not even a good bling part because nobody can see it.

if it's cheaper to get the kit including it than buying each piece separately, get it. if you pay more than $10 extra for the toe piece, you wasted your money.

I have all of that on my civic except ksport doesn't make the front camber kit. It is just some no name one powder coated orange.

Are you purchasing this from bodykitsNW?

not really, if you think about it...might as well spend 50 dollars on the toe kit rather then you spending like 120 on it..so i think it was a good investment..

one more anodized aluminum suspension component, it'll look cool i guess. What's wrong with your factory toe adjustment?
