is it true you really only need a camber kit in the front for civics? been hearing that lately just wanted to make sure so i can save some money....by the 2.5 drop.

 

Yea i guess it can be considered true. My progress camber kit came with some bolts and bushings for the rear. You just have to use as many washers as it takes to correct the negative camber or so that's what I get out of it.

It all depends on how negative your camber is. My car is pretty low and I only have these little metal shim things. There like washers almost. It dosent depend on the car, it depends on the camber.

koo koo i'm working on my sus. just want to ride good and handle good.and save some money on tires....

 

When I dropped my Civic without a camber kit the front and rear both wore but the front wore about 4 times quicker than the rear.

 

Yah just depeneds on the drop.

Guy before me totally messed up my camber.

I got a Skunk2 camberkit for the front. 2washers(4 total) in the back I have ALMOST perfect camber in the back.

 

That's a nice drop you have there d15dude.

 

Thanks, last time I posted it I just got flamed. I bought a front OEM lip but I
dont have any picture on my computer yet.

 

so you only need washers in the rear???

 

It depends on how negative your camber is,
but most people dont need to buy a rear kit.
It can usually be corrected with "shims" or washers.

 

i only have camber kit on the front and it seems to be doing good...i have the ingalls...no kit in the back, but the reason fronts wear out so quick is because they do all the action....turning and accelleration.

 

very true!!!!!! i lowered mines 2.5 wasn' happy with the drop want to g lower.

 

Ive heard stuff about the SRR kit being good and cheap but Im not sure where to get it, maybe someone could let me know?

camber corrections are great is you want to conserve tires. but if you have some cambering, it will improve your handling if tuned correctly. Its just a tradeoff between good handling or good tirewear. just a tip
