pretty sure alot....and wheels go in. Bad enough to ruin your tires in a couple months.

im lowered 2" ish all around. when we installed my skunk2 coilovers, we wanted it to sit right on the ground before driving so we tested it without the camber kit. the rear wheels were pretty slanted enough to cause camber wear as soon as you drive. lifted the car back up and installed camber.

rears = definately needs camber kit
front = not sure, i dont have front camber kit but tires seem ok.

it all depends on the front. When i got my sportlines installed and got an alignment a week later, they couldnt get the front camber back in all the way, so I got the front kit put on, and it went back to perfect. I would highly recommend getting it, my alignment is perfect now.

I'm getting my SPC kit on today. Only the rear is pretty bad. The front won't need to much adjusting. Definately invest in a camber kit though. Better off with it than spending all that money later on tires because of the camber wear.

i'm rollin with a tein s-tech drop (since may 15th) without a camber kit.. doin fine so far, but my car is only dropped a little less than 1.5 inches... the camber change is only noticeable when i look hard at the rear wheels, even then its not that bad

i just installed goldlines and camber was a must right away for the rears but the front are fine

I got about a 3 inch drop in the back with 19s, no camber kit and the camber it horrible. From straight on you can see the rear sticking out...... I'm gonna order a kit really soon though cuz tires are expensive.

ok, thanks im getting the neuspeed sports but no camber kit. i hope that a good alignment can fix the camber

you can try and get the alignment, but sometimes, they wont get it all the way back. and the only way to do it is with the camber kit.

i don't think that will fix the camber...mine isn't dropped as much and they couldn't align it. they got the fronts close but the rears were waay off. just go for the camber kit cuz ur gonna try to get it aligned and realize it won't align all the way....then ur gonna wanna buy a camber kit to save ur tires....which will require u to have them aligned again anyway. may as well get them aligned once and be done w/ it.

i would also call around cuz some shops (Sears, pepboys) won't even touch a lowered car...those bastards. the guys in my area that were williing to do it was.... merchants tire, NTB, and one of the local Goodyear. good luck

just get the Rear SPC kit, and get a 4 wheel align. Tell them you lowered your car and have the camber kit installed. Make sure you have the rims on your car that you want to use, so your car will be aligned best with those tires/rims. No they won't scratch em.

The camber on my car isn't too bad...hardly noticeable. But I think it really depends on how much you're dropped because I'm only dropped 1.5", if that.

i have nuespeed sport springs with konis. The front will need slight camber adjustment. you can fix that by getting ingalls camber bolts for the front $20 cad. The camber in the rear will be way off definately get camber kit for rear unless you want uneven treadwear

/\/\/\ Where did you get the front ingalls for $20? I'm gonna be getting neuspeed sports as well.

The lower you go, the "worse" your camber. I've had 2 degrees negative camber at LEAST on both my rear tires since last year, and even now the camber wear isnt that bad. When I put them on this spring, I had to look REAL hard to figure out which ones were the rears from last year (the fronts had no camber, so theoretically no camber wear). Unless you're dumped more than 2", I don't think it's worth it to get a camber kit. Just get an alignment, cause toe kills tires faster than camber.

i dropped my 03 ex 1.75" all around.. didn't get camb kit.. sure paid for it.. i'm on like my 3rd NEW set of tires.. and i bought the car about a year ago.. 30k miles... 3sets o' tires.. hmm.. kinda balances out.. i still havent bought my kit yet cuz i thought i was going to sell my car.. but now that i'm keeping it for a bit longr.. anyone know any good deals on a front and rear kit that are good/decent and NOT obx?

I dont know about you all, but definetly get a camber kit. My car has been dropped for abut 8 months now with a full camber kit, and everytime I go in for an alignment, they dont even need to adjust anything, the camber, caster, and toe all stay within spec.
