did you get an alignment after you dropped the car? Because toe will be out and that will kill the tires. how much of a drop did you do? did you put a camber kit on the rears? If you just dropped the car, did not do an alignment, and your front tires are trash, you need to get an alignment to correct the toe from lowering.

if you think your front camber is out you can get ingalls upper control arm with adjustable ball joints. but if your front tires are worn from camber, you must be dropped pretty low and must already have a rear camber kit otherwise your rear tires would have been long gone.

im dropped down to 1.5 finger up front and -1 finger in the rear and i am running -1.8 camber in the rear and dont have any problems, and my front camber was not out of spec either. my rear is a little out of spec with the camber, but that doesn't bother me. i also got an alignment asap i dropped, which corrected toe up front from the drop. toe kills the tires much faster than camber.

if you havent gone and gotten alignment go get that done. before you buy a camber kit. when i dropped my car, my front passenger tire looked horrible but the drive side was prefect, because the toe on the passenger side was way off.

if you really want to buy a camber kit, i say get control arm from ingals. it has the ball joint built in

I did get the alignment done immediately after. I got eibach springs and some after market shocks about 8 months ago. i dont have a camber kit on the rear, it just really been messing up the wear on the rears. so is there a specific site where i can get the best deal on ingalls?

thanks

Thats probaly the problem,u should wait about 2 and 1/2 to 3 weeks after to get it aligned. Your car needs a chance to settle fully. As they settle it will change specs

idk about the different brands for camber kits, but when i got my kits i was told to get ingalls. its a good brand.


this is their site just search ur car and it will show the part numbers for what you are trying to buy.
http://www.ingallseng.com/

for the rear all you need is just the control arms, or thats all im using to fix my cambers and its working great.

and i think if you but it from our vendor xlr8 or heel toe there price is cheaper then if u get it direct from ingalls. (not fully sure, didnt look it up)
