Re: camber question (Mista Bone)
1.5 inch drop shouldn't affect the camber too much. But yea, as MistaBone said...get an alignment...as ur toe will be affected. That can kill ur tires too.

Re: camber question (RK)
I put the Eibach Pro-kit (rated at 1.3" drop F/R) and I did need an alignment after the install.
I would recommend to always get an alignment after installing any kind of lowering springs...

Re: camber question (RK)
Problem with lowering a car is that sometimes when your wheels/tires don't have a good offset, you lose performance. For instance, if your camber is a couple degrees off, it will angle your wheels outward - causing less traction, less performance. Plus as everyone else said, you will go though tires faster. Rotate often, get alignment...

Re: camber question (Mista Bone)

I mean do I need to go to a special lowered car alignment ? they want like 100 at least to do alignment, as opposed to 60 bucks on goodyear...

Re: camber question (redteg1)
Just something to remember, you should drive the car for at least a week before getting the alignment done. This will give everything a chance to settle, such as the springs into the pillowmounts. no sense getting it done twice.
