Excellent Product, well thought out design, doesn't raise the front.
Easy to adjust, quiet, noise free operation.
Accommodates the Konis and the Swifts very easily.
Quiet operation. No additional NVH.
We like them.

bump.

just wondering if I will need a camber kit/bolts or crash bolts for my application. I will have a set of kwv3 installed (will use out of box settings) and 18x8 wheels with 245/35 tires on them.

i am a former s2000 owner and used the car as a weekend road course warrior. i had an HKS hipermax 3 suspension on it and 255/40 all around. without any camber kits or mods, the car was set up with -3.5R and -2.0F for camber.

i am not looking for anything as aggressive this time, but am thinking of something like -2.5R and -1.5F for camber this time. what do I need to make this work based on the aforementioned?

thanks

Wanted to ask:

How much max neg camber are you guys able to get using only/just the OEM crash camber bolts?? (ie: SU003-02818)

More, or less, or the same, as the Whiteline cam bolts?

More attracted to the OEM... since, it's OEM quality afterall, he he.

How did this work out for you? I'm going to be tracking my car soon so I'll be needing to do this too. Any installation tips?



Also, where do you guys recommend getting alignments?

It was a while ago I had these installed and they work pretty good. I have -1.3° left and right and thats the max that I can get out of those bolts. My brother has a BRZ and he didn't get these bolts (and he has stock alignment) and my car definitely feels better.
