Camber Kit Needed?
This questions is for anyone with a 95-97 Accord 4 door. If you drop the car 2 inches do you need to get a camber kit or will it still be with in specs? When I dropped my civic I needed a rear shim kit but that's all.
im dropping 1.9" front and rear (eibach sportlines + AGX's) this week......i dont plan on using any camber correction, and its a daily driver. it shouldnt be too bad w/o a kit, and especially if you have harder tired and you rotate often, wear wont be too badly accelerated. however, if you do want to return to factory specs, a kit will be needed
Yeah, a little camber can help with grip but it also depends on your tires too, and how willing you are to plunk down coin for rubber. I'm lowered about 2.3 inches up front and I wasn't real comfortable with the amount of camber that drop created. Its a matter of opinion I guess.

tires are a big issue....harder compound = less wear, so that extra little bit of camber wont hurt as much.....ive currently got yokohoma avid tourers, theyre bascially granny tires, but they handle well in snow, and are cheap....i plan on rotating every 3k miles, and if i ever need new tires (within next year and a half, and my tires are almost new), i plan on getting a kit

Yeah, well I run Parada Spec 2's so I can't really afford them to wear too fast, thus the camber kit. I still rotate them alot but usually end up buying tires every 14-18 months and that's driving relatively conservatively
