How to add camber/ stance.
 
First thing first, regardless of how much hate,disagreement, or anything else that falls in that section of things comes out, i am still going to do it I will find a way all I am asking for is some help.

Anyways. I want to stance my car. I think it would look nice. I know I have to start with coilovers or airbags. Then I have to get wheels but I know there is more to it than just those two things. What else do I need? Can someone guide me in the right direction? please and thank you. And for the love of all things holy, keep the hate to a minimum. Thanks everyone in advance.

You pretty much got the right idea. Go low, wide wheels stretched tires, align the car to fit the wheels.

Choices include
-coil overs (static)
-air ride
-air over coils
-hydraulics (juice)

Just pick one and have fun measuring.

If you are looking for just straight up specs on what fits and what doesn't then you just have to do research I'm sure someone has posted specs you are after. Honestly "stancing" a car is the easiest way to go about a build IMO. I've done all the options available before and it just got tired constantly switching wheels or getting them re built wider or whatever , but good luck on your journey.

if you want to stance the car and don't really car for specs or ride quality or performance just get coils and do lowest setting and mess with the preload xD. total rubbish ride quality though.

however if you want a quality/ into spec stance/flush/fitment w/e could get a bit expensive.

-Coilover/air
-LCA (lower control arms)
-caster/toe arm rod
-camber kit/bolts would help too
-wheels (specs using caculator to make sure your wheels offset is behind your fenders+slight camber should make your car sit low)

ps: should pick wheel size and offset before doing all this stance thing bc alignment/height adjustment/wheels are expensive so try to one hit ko it all.

also suggest you call in a reputable shop around you that does alignment for lowered vehicles and ask them what they'd need before buying anything to avoid wasted efforts/$_$

So wheels first then coils then everything else?

Should I do air or coils? How do i tell how aggresive a wheel is? So many questions.

Like the set up of this car is great. I invision my car to look similar to that just a little less front camber.

You really want to look like a baby giraffe?

Good luck on getting any info about parts stance guys are running. They like their secrets.

Need at least 9" wide wheels, with an offset between +5 and +20. Need a lot of custom parts from front top mounts to rear upper control arms. Hope you have deep pockets too, because doing it right won't be cheap.

Unless you just want to run SPC arms, right @drewbot?

whenever you have your suspension sorted out, at the minimum you will need the following if you are going to do any driving with the desired look:

Rear
adjustable rear lower control arms = camber
adjustable rear toe arms = tire wear and stability

Front
adjustable pillow ball mounts = camber
stock components have quite a bit of adjustability for the front

Just slam the shit out of it, obviously you like the look of Nabeels red twin so just go super low with as much camber as you can fit, buy wheels that look like they don't fit without tires then stretch the smallest tire for the rim you can find, honestly not that hard to lower it all the way down and get wheels that rub and that you have too MAKE fit.

It seems like you have no idea about any aftermarket parts, so it looks like you just want someone to straight out plan your build for you with prices and specs and tire sizes camber specs and all that, honestly it's ALL personal preference just go as low as YOU handle and remember if it's drive able it's probably not low enough. Just lowering your car on coilovers and buying XXR wheels that don't fit is not stance.

Im going to be honest, I have no idea about suspension, let alone aftermarket. I am just trying to get an idea of what parts go into stancing/slamming a car. I know its just not coilover and wheels that make the build. Suspension and wheels and wheel specs are so far over my head and everytime i read info about any of it im just lost. I appricate your help. Do coils have different heights depending on the coil? Will one set drop 1" and another set drop 3"?

Typically you'll start out with a coilover that goes really low like say BC or stance. Get the coils first because the wide wheels used for stance will not fit stock suspension. After getting wheels you go about fixing and fine tuning everything, namely alignment with things like adjustable toe arms and lower control arms. Personally I'd start investing as minimal as possible first to see if the lifestyle is for you. A lot of my friends started out slamming their cars but got bored of not being to drive their cars normally and after a year or two turned to the more track orientated side. Your results will vary
