Rep Power: 0 Yup... SPC and Ingalls are the two brands iamfob is talking about.
If you have a coupe, I heard the SPC rear camber kits are the best and easiest to work with, cuz it replaces the whole stock arm. A few ppl on this site have them. It's recommended that you get them for the rear, and as for the front... you don't really need them.
The SPC rears go for about $240 a pair... and the SPC fronts are like, $40 for a pair. It's a good idea to get it especially for the rear so you don't have your rubbers wearing out unevenly. You should be okay without cambers in the front tho. But get an alignment done to be sure...
I'm guessing your back tires are sitting like this... / \ slightly?
After a few weeks, I'll be getting the SPC rears... cuz I just got my car lowered, so I'm letting the springs settle for a few weeks.

what width tire are you going to be running??
anything above a 205 i'd say pass on the rear camber..cuz all you'll be doing is pushing the top of the tire outward and into the fender (guess that depends on drop too..)
i've got 215's and shyt even w/o a camber fix it's freakin' close..
if i cambered them up i'd be smoking w/o a doubt, cutting a nice gouge into my tires....

Rep Power: 0 whats the drop????
on my car??? hehehe..... we'll say my back rims are tucked!!
i dont even have a finger gap in the back... id have to tuck my fingers up to feel the top of the tire.
its only a 10mm difference on the width so i doubt ill rub bad, unless i have a full car!
