That camber kit is going to keep hitting your shock tower.

Either raise your car or take it off.

nothing will happen...

just avoid the potholes, or raise the car if its on coilovers...

that is the setback with camber kits... they will hit the shock tower if the car is too low and you hit a bump/pot hole.

i was lucky enough to get this camber kit from discount tire direct's ebay page for 50 bucks shipped when on the progress suspension website has them selling for $160.

havent hit the shock tower once with these on but my car is lowered on neuspeed sports (1.5 inch drop) with kyb agx's.

came with rear shims too.

Man you need to give us more details, like WHAT KIND OF CAMBER KIT IS IT?!?!

If it's the 3 degree anchor bolts or sliding balljoint kits you're fuucked. I don't even know why they make those kits as they always smash into the fender well pinch welds. My shop will not ever install 3 degree sliding balljoint or anchor bolt kits. The only good kits for over 1.5 degrees are the complete upper control arms like Skunk2 Pro series.

Got any pics of your car at it's current ride height?

Help us help you.
