Hey all,

Had a quick question which I couldn’t find a definitive answer to. Seems everyone recommends more camber front than rear, and generally use adjustable rear LCAs to reduce rear camber when needed.

I am lowered about 40mm on coilovers (ST), with 18x8.5s and 255/35 tyres. Camber is about -1.4 (maxed) front and -2.6 rear. The car feels great and has a nice balance (more front than rear grip when pushing).

My question is what would the benefit of reducing the camber in the rear be (other than tyre wear)? Is it really worth buying adjustable LCA? Does it make it more predictable on the limit?

Car does a lot of windy mountain drives, but won’t be tracked.

Thanks in advance for your advice.
