Default 02 V6 Coupe Camber issues..............

Hey guys, I did a search on here and really couldn't find the info I wanted so I thought I would ask.

I have lowered my car with H&R Sport springs and have noticed some wear on the inside of the tires and was told I need to get a camber kit.

2 Questions

1. What is a good brand for the fronts, what should I know about what I buy ? Are there different methods of how to adjust the camber ?

2. I don't think I have much wear on the rear but is the rear worth doing as well ? And like about what is good to buy and are they all the same ?

Thanks

Ingalls is a good one to use and here is a link that may help you.

Is the rear as important as the front ?

I was looking at some on eBay for about $200 for the complete front and rear, how much better is something like the Ingalls going to be ?

Well i prefer a little camber especially on the back because it seems to help the handling of the car. I cannot really tell which is better because i don't know what the one on ebay is but normally you get what you pay for and if it is that cheap i would not trust it as much. That is just my opinion though.

The rear got more camber than the front even with the same drop, it got more neg. camber when it rolls out of the factory.

remember the principle of lowering a car, by doing so you'll get neg. camber, neg camber around 1 to 1.5 degree do help you to go around the corner with more grip.
anything more just useless.

I personally don't have a camber kit on my accord, I am on h&r race too
Just get it aligned and rotate your tire more often.
