Okay the time has come to get a camber kit for the front side of my car. The debate has come to which kit should I get setup with? I know that I need to get setup with the ball joints however which would be better for a car that is dropped aprox 1.5"-2" (coilovers...) I don't know how many degrees positive the tires are at now but when I jacked the car up to install my Eibach sways, I noticed right off the bat, that the front tires were not worn evenly. There are different degree camber kits available as well that range from postive 1.5deg-3.5deg (web page) http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...spagename=WDVW and -1.5 to pos1.5 (web page) http://www.autocarparts.com/part/932/4 and even a kit that includes the control arm for camber adjustment (web page) http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...MakeTrack=true I really don't know which to go with. I intend to put either 18's or 19's when the suspension is completed but I HAVE to get these bad boys first... FEEDBACK?!?

When I was in the market for the rear camber kit, I was debating on whether to get the Ingalls or the SPC. After I saw the Ingalls price, I got sticker shock. Went with SPC instead. I've had no problems with SPC to date.

On a side note, I did not get the front camber kit. While it is recommended, the front camber kit is not absolutely necessary. The front camber kit fixes the toe problem for lowered TL. The fact that you have uneven tire wear suggests that you probably did not get a 4 wheel alignment done (or if you have done a 4 wheel alignment, you need to get another one done). I'm dropped on H&R Race springs (2.2" front, 1.75" rear), and I'm not using a front camber kit. My tire wear is fairly even I would say.

But if you do decide to go get the front camber kit, make sure you do a 4 wheel alignment. It's very important - good luck!
