I'm planning on getting Eibach pro-kit, KYB AGX, Ingalls camber kit, and 17" Konig Imagines wrapped w/ either Bridgestone Potenza's or Kuhmo Ecsta Supra's.

Any opinions on this?

ya,ummmm........you dont need camber kit for prokit/agx combo. Only need camber kit when you go below 2 inches......the agx/prokit setup should ride you about 1.5 inches, so youll be just fine.... Also, the prokit/agx setup seems to be very popular and has called for some awsome results....for major modders out there, they think the drop setup is a waste of money as it barely drops the car, for others, the look is satisfying and the ride quality/handling improvement is more than satisfying.....i reccomend the setup and definetly plan on (after doing quite a bit of research) doing this drop setup aswell! Good luck, KIT!

Not being a fan of the "slammed look", I love my Pro-kit/AGX setup. The drop is just perfect for me and my 18s fit in the wheel-well just the way I want them to.

I concur on the camber kit--you don't need it!

The wheel/tire set-up should be a beaut!

Good luck!

Are you sure about not needing a camber kit? I had a 93 Honda Accord with Neuspeed Sport springs (1.75" drop). My tires started wearing on the inside edge, so I slapped on a camber kit. We're only talking about a 0.35" difference between those Neuspeeds and the Eibach pro-kits for the CL.

Those of you out there with this setup...have you experienced tire-wear problems? How long have you had the setup and with which tires?

Just wanna make sure what I'm getting myself into...

Your nuespeed springs probably settled with a 2 inch drop so therefore you would have needed the camber kit...the prokit settles around 1.7ish so you don't need the camber kit for the prokit...

I just took my CL over to the dealer last week for it's initial 4-wheel alignment (2000 miles after the Pro-kit install), and they were able to align it with no problems! Everything is within factory specs!

When I took my car for an alignment, I did have negative camber. But it is soo slight that they won't recommend a camber kit unless they know they can pull a fast one on you.

I have had three sets of tires. The first two were Pirelli P7000SS's. The inside does wear quicker, but evenly enough to that when it's time for new tires, it's not due to camber.

Anybody here with a Eibach pro kit and Koni yellow set up??? Also where did you guys buy your shocks and springs??? I wanna do this set up but want to get some feed back. I plan on getting 18's and was wondering how this would look. Any feed back is greatly appreciated.
