Default need help on type of rear camber kit

so i lowerd my car on h and r racing springs. it rides amazing but my rear tyres are wearing really fAST on the inside. so this is the cheapest camber kit i found and wonder if it will work for the 02 ep3. i search and im pretty sure it would work. are there anything cheaper then this like a good bang for my buck?

I got the both front and rear adjustable camber kits from SPC for $95 shipped on ebay. No problems with it, as expected from SPC.

I couldn't agree with you more on the alignment and the ingrals! I know alot of guys using the ingrals with no complaints at all... SPC is good to but the Ingrals are just stronger.

You guys mean Ingall's camber kit? Anyway, I do agree with what's stated above. Tire wear has a lot to do with alignment. As for camber kits go, Ingall's or SPC.

not a fan of the spc kit, I had one arm fail and back when C&D raced a ep3 at that 25 hour at nelson ledges race, they had both spc rear camber arms fail.... spc uses are peace of flat stock with a bolt welded to it for the outer knuckel interface....the bolt tears off under heavy load. The Ingall's part uses a forged steel peace that is threaded....much stronger.

Yeah totally actually. That's interesting, it does help a lot to compare parts side-by-side. I don't know why that would be welded though and not forged. Kind of a given if you ask me what to do in development.

Holy hell. I'm glad mine's held up through 3 events. 1.10g peak on the skid and still fine.

Its cool, I am sure you will be fine, just keep a eye on them. People do not realize sometimes that these are upper control arms. Going cheap just does not make a lot of sence imo.
