SPC and Ingalls difference

Okay, before I get flamed, it's not another typical question. I'm planning to drop about 2 inches with my new B&G coils (so happy, coming in a week), but i'm trying to buy a camber kit.
The rear I'm going to get Ingalls, but the front is for 75 bucks while the SPC front is 39. The only difference is that the SPC only adjust 1.75 degrees, while the Ingalls can adjust 2 degrees. I read on a thread that the front only need .3 degrees adjustment for neuspeed sport drop. But I'm making this new thread to make sure.
Plus if Grey is reading this, I read that you thought the Ingalls are poorly put together for the rear and that you had to take it apart and grease the threads and poly. I'm not worrying about the poly b/c i'm getting rubber, but I have to also lube the threads? You said you saw the SPC and they look better than Ingalls, but I have the problem with ABS bracket for the rear for EX Civics. Does the SPC have a mounting area for teh ABS. I also read in one thread that they do, but once again, trying to make sure before I purchase these off GBC.
Sorry for the long thread guys, always got alot to say and questions.

You should be ok with either....Hotchkis also makes a good kit. As for the appearance/lubing...small stuff, IMO.

Lightning Motorsports carries Ingalls and has these kits: front +/-1º for $23, front +/-2º for $46 and the rear -2º to +4º for $148.

Im getting the SPC front and rear. I compared the ingalls and the SPC and the SPC looks stronger and better made.

I got the Ingalls in the mail and don't worry about it. The ingalls is also made of steel and not of cheap plastic if that's what you might be thinking. A camber kit is a camber kit. Only difference is poly or urethane and amount of adjustment. Other than that, I doubt that your camber kit is going to be outperformed by SPC...haha. No horsepowers there man, but everyone knows what Ingalls is, so then you can tell ppl that and get props for getting name brand??? A confidence booster for you if your still feeling bad about getting ingalls instead of spc.
