hey guys i just put camber kit on.....and not to sound dumb but i got it on and went to test drive it and i have some serious steering issues..........like ill be going straight then it will pull right then ill turn it back to straighten it up and it will start to pull to the left and its kinda scary to drive......do i need an alignment? by the way i have it cambered all the way in....its the uca camber kit thanks any help is apreciated....no criticism please

 

Yes. Get an alignment. Anytime you mess with any suspension part, get an alignment.

 

^^^^ this first!

 

Cambered all the way in? What the hell does that mean? You could have an alignment shop set the camber so that it's the same on both sides when you're sitting in the car.

Are you one of those hella-notflush people?

 

Just get an alignment and call it good

 

it turned out i had a loose tie rod thanks and yes i got an alignment.....thanks guys

it means my my adjustable upper a arms are cambered all the way to -6 which is all the way in?its the same on both side.....i said dont comment unless you have something good to say

 

-6*!!!!!?????????? Are you ****ing jokeing!?
The wheels will be damn near sideways!

there is no way to say something positive about this.

 

This isn't Disney.

-6* camber is flat out dangerous.

Especially if you're stretching your tires.

 

Ignore the haters, they have to hate, it's their nature.

I'm sure your dope ride looks hella sick!


*edit: anyone reading this please know that THIS POST IS SARCASM.

 

thanks ill get pics posted soon.....and if they know there crap they would know that -6 is not that much..smh...and thats what the alignment place told me to get me to get a camber alignment.....its probably -3....they will get over it.....theyre just mad......i feed off haters

 

Yeah, we're super jelly of your dangerous camber curve. Every alignment shop, any height, will tell you to get an alignment. The couple of place I go to SWEAR that the 1.8* front camber and 1.8*

3* rear camber is normal. I'd like to have 3* camber on my front wheels, but I'm not willing to go that low or buy a camber kit yet.

6* is impractical and dangerous.

 

-6* IS a lot of negative camber. Anyone who told you it wasn't needs to be ****ing slapped.

Runing -3* is not that big of deal, but -6* is stupid.


You have no idea what you are talking about. This thread needs to be locked before it has the chance to go any farther.

 

Wow, my sarcasm was taken seriously.

OP, the term you should be using is "oni camber".

And it is retarded and dangerous.

And, if you search for posts by me, you'll see that the guy who used to run -4* of front camber on his DC2 daily is telling you -6* is retarded. At -4*, my braking distances were already severely compromised.

 

the thing is that they prolly just told me that so i would pay them to align it.....its not like my sidwalls are resting on the pavement.........more than half of the tire is flat on the ground how is that dangerous?stop hating and dont hate on something because you dont like it....i like the flush look.......my camber is nowhere near what that picture you posted.......like i said if you dont have something good to say dont say it all....you guys are making a bigger deal out of it then yall should be......we all like hondas but some people have different taste....im borrowing a tool to check my camber tomorrow

 

according to pics my camber is in between -4 and -3......i see what yall are saying.....-6 is ridiculous lol i think the alignment place was lying

its not even this bad forreal

 

Agreed. All of these "negative camber" threads should be locked. I mean, they don't allow stretched tire threads in the Wheel & Tire forum for that very reason.

 

hey guys so i was gonna inform everyone that yall was right and this is a stupid and gay trend that i got out of after the 2 month hassle of daily driving my del sol that i "stanced" or ruined now that i look back! FUNCTION>FORM anyday

im glad i got out of this phase

 

glad you survived!

stance isn't a bad thing, all the best builds in any automotive genre take heavy consideration on wheel style and fitment.. but throwing a 10" wide wheel on a honda and making the car undriveable is just dumb.

 

So tempted to sticky this thread...

Glad you came to the conclusion yourself.

 

Bookmark it.

 

thanks guys im glad im out of it for real...im happy to be able to actually hang curves and stuff again!

 

do it. i want to start a kodythejdmkid scholarship fund.

that stable feeling is awesome isn't it. it just sucks when that something in your gut tightens up because it can tell the back end is about to go.. in a 10mph roundabout.
