Hey guys I am not very well informed on the purpose and advantages/disadvantages of a camber kit, and I wanted all your help with deciding on weather or not to pick one up.

My car will be lowered on Tein SS with the EDFC, and I will have 235/35/19 toyo proxes 4 or t1's, and the lowering setting with probably be somewhere in the middle for the front and back.

With this set-up would it be smart to get a camber kit? I am told that it will help prolong the life of my tires, but I dont know if it will make the ride harsher or have any other disadvantageous factors to the ride of the car. Ingalls and Comptech both make camber kits, and Comptech is just for the rear, while I can buy a complete set for the front and rear through Ingalls. Any advice would be appreciated. Thanks for your time!

what will the drop be? thats a major factor in if you need to adjust the camber.

the bigger the drop the more its needed...

1/2" or less none is needed
1/2" to 1" good to have one not a necessity (little bit more wear on inner edges without)
1" to 2" i would get a kit that offered about 1.5 degree adjustment. if a kit isnt used you will have a pretty good amt of wear on the inside edges of your tires
2" or greater at this point one is required, one with 3 degrees of adjustment if possible. if you dont get one, not only is your suspention not working right, but you will chew through tires every 5-6k miles as the inside edges will get all tore up

it is less nessacary for the front as as for the suspension design. (double wishbone) but it would be best to get both and have the camber set back to factory specs after you have the car lowered

Ingalls or SPC is your friend. There is some info here https://acurazine.com/forums/showthread.php?t=105371

Any drop changes camber so if you wish to save your tires I suggest you get a camber kit..

yes, get one. I'm about to install one because my tires are being eaten alive.

I would say definatly get them, I have Tein on my car with the stock rims... and when I didn't put on the camber kit, I notice a major change in handling, and performance of the car, not the mention how much tires it ate. I had my 19's on for about a week with the Tein's... It wasnt as bad, cause I had to raise up the car, but none the less it's much better with the camber kit. Trust me !!!
