You will get a very small camber in the rear, but it won't eat your tires. This negative camber might also give you a better cornering on some situations. Make sure you get a proper aligment a week or 2 after installation. Our rear camber is not adjustable, but if you buy the kit, which is just one control arm for each side, then you could make it were you don't have any camber. Toe in the rear will kill your tires faster than camber would ever will.

Correct. About which to buy I would buy the teins, thus H&R sport are great springs too. Your acura shocks will last a while....my best guest frontt 50k-70k miles, that is when they start to feel not as good as new. Rear 80k to 100k.
