Depends on how you're doing it.


I've got lobed SPC bolts in the bottom holes and the stock bottom bolts in the upper holes (KW v3's, slotted from the factory). Set it up by maxing out the camber in the top hole, then dialed back with the lower bolt. With the weight on the wheels, it'll always want to push the top bolts in for more camber, so the only way it's going to slip is towards more negative (assuming you haven't hit something like a curb). I've got about over 1000km's with my setup, including lots of rough roads and a track day, and no slipping.


If you're using camber bolts in a slotted upper hole to lessen camber, it'll totally slip.
