Default Camber kits??

What camber kits are you all using? Is the Skunk2 kit good? Do I need rear camber kit or is stock fully adjustable for a 1.5"-2 drop? Does anyone have camber plates on their coilovers? Thanks.

Is the Skunk2 kit good?
Very. Easy to adjust and I find them reliable.

Do I need rear camber kit or is stock fully adjustable for a 1.5"-2 drop?
I had the alignment shop adjust my camber back to 0 without using my Ingalls camber kit. They said stock adjustments was sufficient.

Does anyone have camber plates on their coilovers? Thanks.
If you are referring to EG/EK/DC chassis, you cannot utilize camber plates on top of shocks because we have wishbone suspension of front. If you look at the geometry of the front shock, you notice the camber will not be affected at the angle of the shock regardless of much you play with it. Camber plates are found on McPherson strut type vehicles, i.e. 240's, BMW's, RSX

Hope this helps.

That looks really nice. I'm using Ingalis myself. It does what I want so no point in spending more money. I wouldn't get it again because I've seen nicer setups and I really only got it for racing and it doesn't adjust very much.

Washers can be used in the back to fix your camber problems.

i thought the stock rear was a negative 1 degree camber from factory? either way, I've been riding on itr springs with about an inch drop and now on ctr springs with a little more drop than itr, and my rear tires do not have uneven tread wear. my front tires are a different story though
