Default Camber kits : what do you guys recommend?

I never thought that my camber was that negative until i took a look @ my front tires. They're completely worn down on the inside edge. So...i just bought 2 Falken Azenis tires to replace them and then when the OEM tires wear out then i.ll complete the Falken set. What i was wondering is, what camber kit do you guys recommend for me to use to protect my future Azenis from the same demise???

I have Skunk2 Adjustable control arms in the front. I have had them for 8k so far. I do not track my car, and I havent had any slipping problems. In the rear I just use the cheap washer trick.

Do a search, you should come up with tons of things to do with camber.

Also, get a good alignment. Toe kills your tires more than camber does.

The best choice for the front would be either the King motorsports or Skunk 2 adjustable A arms, and for the rear, i would just use washers.

There's an arm that attaches to the car. when you look straight through the wheel well and it has two bolts attaching it to the car. I used washers that were the size of a quarter and 1/16 in thick. if you still need help pm me and i'll give u a site that'll explain things a lil more.

spc front pillow mount camber kits are no more than 69 dollars, the rears are the exspensive ones because you have to get the upper and lower control arms and do not need a pillow mount camber kit becasue of this. this lower kit will cost you along the lines of 300-500 depending on who wells it to ya- try calling FPP(furious performance parts) they are located in Longmont, Colorado. they set me up with the rear control arms for 320 installed. i guess the main reason is because i was in a bind and needed something fast but also because SPC is located in Longmont colorado and he didn't have to pay for shipping and handling. byt he way i got the uppers and lower control arms at 250 dollars(thats; 25 above wholesale) they will hook you up-don't know if they ship but ask for Chris, he is the import guy and is great to work with, he asked me to give him as many plugs for hooking me up with the price he gave me.

i got ingalls in the front and sprints in the rear.

ingalls sucks. they sqeak a lot, and if you hit any bumps or small dips hard enough, your freaking control arm hits your car and puts two freaking dents under your hood.

not on ur hood, but right above the control arm. where you installed the camber kits.

you get two freaking dents. not just small dents. but two huge dents on each side. and the paint will start to chip off also.

i got the whole package. eibach sports, tokico, and ingalls/sprint. strut bars, etc.

i didnt try to take any short cuts, or do it the cheap way. (install springs and thats it, like most people).

got it all installed, got an alignemnt, and end up with two dents on my ride.

my tires are still good tough.

and the passanger side mud guard thingy ripped out and flew off while driving on the freeway. wtf was that about.
