? for 99TL's with springs and TLS rims

Was wondering if anyone had to adjust their camber to negative (Inward) after installing springs, I have a 99 TL with TLS rims and don't want it to rub in back when carrying passengers. Also do I really need one of those camber kits? Also planning to upgrade to 225/45/17 from the stock tls tires of 215/50/17. Any advice..thanks.

I have a 99 with TLS rims and Comptech Springs............no rubbing. And you only need a camber kit if your car is really dropped low(3+ inches).

Just make sure you wait a few weeks before getting an alignment after installing the springs. Let the springs settle a bit.

I have a 99 and am about to put h&R springs on, there is no need for a camber and i also have cl-s rims which are a half inch wider than tl-s rims. As long as you go 225/45 you will be fine. It's when you go 235, then you will rub the back and maybe even the front.

Get a lifetime alignment and align the car right afterwards. Then come back a month later.
