Bagging rear of car

I was wondering if its possible to just put bags in the rear, I plan on putting the whole car on air but dont got the money and my camber is really negative even with a camber cause my 18's are tucking a lot so thought of buying new springs but maybe just bag the rear since I plan to in the future anyway and save money and I hoping that I can put bags in the rear cause my friend can hook me up.

What are you doing to your car? do you have springs now? If so new springs aren't going to help.
I am sure you can just do the rear but you will end up paying more money and having more down time for your car if you do it that way. And it will be rediculous to do it that way too. Just wait until you have enough money or just buy a camber kit!!

I got a camber kit but the weight in the trunk sits car too low and I have to keep my camber negative, if I put the wheels straight the fenders sit on the wheels and my friend said he can have my car bagged over a weekend

I guess it is possible to put bags in just the rear, but I would get an ingalls camber kit
and then take it to a shop to get a 4 wheel alignment.
If your tires are hitting on the inside , get some wheel spacers.

what are wheels spacers going to do to help this? absolutely nothing. Its only going to make the problem worse...
What size tires and what springs are you using? I have 215-40-18 and race and it tucks but ya its not too badd. i would recommend you just roll the fenders and adjust the camber as much as you can before it starts to rub.

just bag the rear??? what are you going to be installing the tanks, solenoids, compressers the whole 9 yards? if so dude i would just wait till you can afford it all since all you really need are lines and the front bags which run what under $1000. but ya you can just bagg the rear if you'd like... i personally would just do it all at once...

Of course u can put just bags in rear. 2 of my friends got airride and both of them have just bags in rear. Of course the back is a lot more bouncy then the front but thats cus u have no shock. The hackshack sells the kits for our civics and it uses airstruts up front and just bags in rear.
