From looking at the report I got back do you think I need a camber kit and or another alignment. To me when I look at this they did a crapy job of doing an alignment. I don't feel any thing wrong but this report keeps on bothering me. I'm running on 215/35/18's with 1.4" drop with sportlines and koni's so I want my alignment to be correct so I don't ware out my tires unevenly. Thanks

YOu look fine to me. Everything seems to be within spec. It is usually only the camber that you have to worry about. I just dropped my sedan with the prokit springs and my rear wheels are sitting at -2.5 degrees.

Per the manual:

Front camber is 0.00 plus or minus.5 degrees

Rear camber is -1.00 plus or minus .5 degrees

I am somewhat perplexed since I used the sportlines and my front was off -.75 degree and -2.00 before the camber kits were installed. The front kit will adjust to one degree plus or minus and the rear will do 3 degrees plus or minus.

if that is true, looks like it is still in spec even after the drop, guess i wont be getting a camber kit...

After I installed my springs I took the car to NTB and got an alignment, no camber kit needed because our cars can correct a lil bit of camber.

The shop where I got springs installed told me not to get a camber kit because our cars are made to have some positive or negative camber. They told me that our car will handle alot better without a camber kit but you will be wearing out your tires unevenly. They also said that our cars would handle funny with a camber kit. They do recommend a camber kit if you do slam your car since most of the time you are going for show and not as worry about the handling.

if you squat behind your car and your tires look like this-------> / \
that's when you know you need a camber......or you can just feel the inside of your tires to see if they are wearing out.....

Ha Ha, were did you go to get your alignment done, I bet they really wanted you get a front/rear camber kit, huh? Well, that is my job, I am an "alignment tech". Yeah I recomend you get a front/rear camber kit. If you want the best handling/longest life out of your tires, get a kit. Then get an alingnment. They will probably give you a better job next time too. From your specs you are going to get some wear, you are pushing all of your specs to the max. Make sure you make them get your specs in or as close as possible to the middle of the min/max of specs. They start with the rear toe/camber to get your thrust angle, your's is ok. I could go on and on, but my opinion is that they just want you to get an alignment kit before they put time/better specs on your car. PS either complain and get better specs or get the kit and get the best specs and demand a near optimum specification job after the camber kits.
