    Dropping my car soon.

    Im dropping my car soon and got everything to do it. i got the Eibach pro-kit springs, Tokico struts, and a spc camber kit. It is suppose to give me a 1.3 to a 1.5 drop, and i cant imagin how it will look. Any one have any pics of a similar drop on some 18's? i really would like to see it.
    It drops Monday(2-27-06) and the Center-Force clutch goes in Tuesday (2-28-06)

    Imagine having 3 or more finger gap all the way around and there you have it. You could also search in the members ride forum for "pro kit" and see if any other memebers have pictures of their cars on pro kits. Good luck

          Kinda sorta.

          Toe is THE most important tire wear angle, but caster and camber can contribute to tire wear as well. Camber is a very slow tire wearing angle, but even excessive amounts of camber will speed up tire wear. With a Pro-kit this shouldn't be a problem for the original poster.


          An alignment is EXTREMELY critical after adjustment/installation of any suspenson components.

              heheh yea and i need one. yea my camber is off 1.9 degrees.

              if you have a small issue now with camber, your going to get more issues later...

              but imagine 2 finger gap...ill take pics of my car tomorrow or something. i love the drop.
              What makes me laugh about forums, is that no matter how much you try to help someone, they dont take the advice. Go ahead and do it the hard way.

              You got to respect what you drive, and appreciate what you have, making the best of what you got. and if that means putting CAI, HID's, a phat stereo system, and a idiot in the drivers seat...then so be it!

                    I don't think you will need a camber kit with the pro-kit.You will however need one if you lower your car 2 inches or more.
