How low can I go?

sup peeps, this is my first post. I just ordered a B&G Coilover kit today, and was wondering how low can the 7th Gens go before camber correction is needed? I was looking at goin maybe 1.75''. I may just say screw it and get an Ingalls kit. anyone know of a site to get good prices on it? I think with my hookups at my local speed shop, Im looking at a little less than $200 for all four corners. thanks

btw...I did a search, but couldnt find out what I was looking for. maybe I wasnt using the correct search terms...I dunno.

i say go grab a camber kit.

i bought my SPC camber kit all around from danscreation brand new for 130 shipped. rear is more needed then front becuz wen i installed my skunk2 coilovers... i didnt see much negative in the front. i dropped my front 2" ish and rear 1.5-1.7 ish

http://spc.danscreations.com/

ingalls kit may be better but i never tried theirs.

With my Eibach Sportlines(1.4" drop) I was cambered in the rear enough for me to install a camber kit. I didnt have to, but I wanted to save my tires and some money. So yeah you dont have to install any kit, unless you want to save your tires.

Ingalls makes a good quality product and is the only one I would trust. I guess I'll see about ordering tmw...unless someone can send me to a site that has the kits for cheap.

I would go with a full camber camber kit even with a 1" drop. It's pretty easy to wear out your tires even with the slightest drop. Just remember that even though you might not be able to see if your camber is off, doesn't mean that its not there.

SPC makes a very good kit also. Thought a lot of people like Ingalls, SPC has proven themselves to many customers. I have their camber kit and it is great.

yea, I was gonna go with Tein SS first....but the deal I was able to get on these coilovers were TOO good to pass up. I guess I basically got them at cost...I dunno, incredible deal though after seeing what the cheapest was I could get them for on the net.
