eibach pro kit

do you need a camber kit when dropping with the eibach pro kit....just curious looking to order my springs right now and cant decide between the H&r sports or the eibach pros, the H&Rs dont look low enough so i thinkin about just going with the eobach pros....

with any lowering springs u will experience negative camber but with the pro-kit only slight negative camber which IMO is good, it will eat the corner of ur tires in time but the handling will be great with not much risk of fishtailing.

Eibach is on the border line. Your tires will probably wear slightly faster and on the insides.

Keep in mind that a camber kit will push the top of your tires out so if you were pushing the limits of offset without rubbing, a camber kit will probably make you rub.

If you have plenty of room to begin with then no worries.

try it out for a few weeks, u don't have to get it right now, like i said, the pro-kit gives slight negative camber (bottom of tires are out) but if u want the handling and protection of not sliding and fish tailing then i recommend leaving it the way it is. depends really on how often you drive also IMO.

If you want to buy new tires faster than normal, then dont get the camber kit, my tires ate like a bitch when i had neg camber so i just got the kit. It helps.

how much is the camber kit. I came from an S2000, which had me replacing rear tires every 12,000 miles...at about $225 a piece.
