Off the top of my head I'd guess around -2.5 or more rear camber and you might see some uneven tire wear. The SPC lower arms are okay on a budget. - Andy |

Spring rates are 6kg front and rear. I originally was running them 15 clicks from full hard but the bobbling was too much so have dropped them to 25 clicks from full hard. I've run them on the track at 5 clicks from full hard and they are excellent (a track instructor commented the same). They absorb big bumps, kerbs and broken roads very well but seem to be struggling with high frequency small bumps on motorways and A roads. Thanks again for any help / thoughts.

Maybe reach out to your locals for help with the spring install and use the money saved on installation for the LCAs? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I can do the install myself but I am terrible at taking my time with things in order to do it safely without possibly damaging something cosmetic near by (like a fender). After fighting with the shocks/springs in my miata I would just rather have it done by a shop so that I dont ding a fender or something with the impact gun.. lol

That's what I was thinking Andy. I think with a 2" drop the rear camber would be like at -3 or higher and I want it to be at -1 or even 0. So LCA's is a must. What do you recommend being paired with the KW V3's... I'm leaning towards Whiteline or Cusco's.

Whitelines are not available and prob won't be for a while. Cusco works okay, but there are a ton of options right now for LCAs. SPL, RacerX, and the new one coming from FT86speedfactory/Velox. SPC is fine for a street car too on a budget. - Andy |
