-1.1 camber my rears, what u guys have?
i recently got my car dropped with CT springs, which by the way was one of the best decesions i have made. I got my alignment done, and my fronts were ok, but my rear's were -1.1 camber. -1.1 is the most the shop recommended w/o a camber kit, I was just curious to know how much u other guys were off. Thanks

my left rear is -.5 and the right rear is -1.75. The right rear tire is showing signs of wearing unevenly so I'll have to install my camber kit asap.

At initial spring install (with Koni/Neuspeed yellows)
* -0.3 left rear / -0.13 right rear
* fronts had zero camber
Two weeks later to allow spring settling
* -1.25 left rear / -1.33 right rear
Added rear Comptech camber kit, then ...
* rears zeroed out ... perfect alignment for all fours
Most say you don't need a camber kit. Keep in mind that although the cars are the same and the parts are the same, there will always be VARIANCES. Not all CLs and Comptech parts are identical in terms of build and manufacture.

I will be having my CT springs installed hopefully next Friday, a week from tomorrow. I have read on this thread about the springs "setting".
1) Should I wait a week or two to allow the springs to "set" before I have an alignment?
2) Has anyone needed a camber kit w/ Comptech Springs??

You really don't want negative camber on our front wheel cars. It's counter productive to getting a neutral feel through the corners. If anything you want to stand them straight up at 0.0 degrees and be a bit negative in the front.
