Hey guys i am thinking about lowering my 01 cl. I had a civic before this car and after i lowered it the front and the rear both cambered in and i had to buy kits for them. They tires really wore until i got them! IS this the same for the cl's! Or can i just lower them and not worry about them? Also how low should i go! some pix would be appreciated! Thanks kambiet@vct.net

 

I had to do a rear camber kit.

Others claim not to need one, but I sure did.

 

I just noticed that I have some inside tire wear on my car. I carry a lot of tools for work in the trunk, but I am gonna get the camber kit now.

You shouldnt need one for the Comptechs.. but if you go with anything lower, like Eibach or H&R, you will probably get some negative camber that wont align into spec w/o a kit

 

Since our control arms are not adjustable you "will" need a camber kit. Some negative camber is "good" for the car (helps with cornering). Just remember, the lower the car, the more negative camber you will get. Eibach has a camber/alignment kit (part # 567090K) for about $160 (plus shipping). Thats less than the cost of 2 new tires

 

It all depends on how low you drop your car. If you are looking at comptech springs, no need for a camber kit. Just make sure you rotate your tires at least every 5-7k miles
