If you do a search, the consensus appears to be that Eibach springs require rear camber kits.

I'm also deciding between eibach and comptech, but mostly because I want to make sure there is no rubbing after the drop. My 2 options are 17" Polished Centerline RPMs and put the stock 215/50/17s on them, or get 18" RPMs and a 225/40 or 23540 series tire. Both the 17" and 18" rims have a +42 offset.

Will the larger drop on the eibach's causing rubbing on 17"? on 18"?

If so, would Comptech be a better choice? H&R?

I know lots of people say to find rims with at least +45 on 18s, but I am dead set on these rims... so lightweight and a look I like.

thanks,

--D
