Tein S Tech & Camber Kit queston

hi, i just ordered some tein s tech springs (1.3 front, 1.4 back) and ingalls rear camber kit.... now should i even bother with a front kit?... i'm kinda on a tight budget and can't shell out the extra 20 at the moment

thanks!

Nah. you don't need a front one. It won't make a difference. Maybe one day invest in one because it helps with alignments sometimes with lowered cars. But for your low drop, I wouldn't bother now.

you need the camber bolt kit for the front, wait and see, you will get inner tire wear, 30 bucks for the ingalls front kit, worth the money

he probably wont need a front camber kit with a 1.3" drop, probably wont be more than 1 degree, but it only 20 bucks for a front kit

hrm.. i dunno your the only one around here thats saying the front kit is needed for such a small drop. but your right about 30 bucks being worth it, i'll look into that in the near future.

i use to have h&r springs and they claimed a 1.3" drop front and rear,
and i did get inner tire wear, but the rear sagged also, so now i have tein ss coilovers. hope that helps, if your tires are $100+ each, then spending 30 dollars is very well worth it

yeah got the alignment done awhile back with the teins on and the front was off by 0.13 degrees so no a front camber kit is not required.
