Sportlines before and after camber correction
Just wanted to throw this out there for anyone who may have been in the same boat as me.
I installed Eibach sportlines a few months ago along with some larger wheels and tires. I loved the way the car looked but honestly I didn't like the way the handling had changed. It had significantly less rear traction under power and it felt like it understeered while just taking turns around town. I think I had something like -.1 camber in the front and -1.7 or so in the rear with zero toe on both. Anyways, it was a love (looks) hate (handling) sort of relationship. I finally got around to installing SPC camber bolts in front and lower control arms in the rear and got another alignment with -1.3 camber and 0 toe in the front and -1.2 camber and +0.1 toe in the rear. I fell back in love with the car  While its probably still far from perfect, its loads better than what it was and I'm pretty sure I like it more than when it was stock (although that was awhile ago...)Either way, if you are in the same situation I was in with the Sportlines, you might try to get some other suspension bits to make the car feel the way it should (IMO). That's it. Carry on. |

I'm in the same boat you were in. I have -0.5 in the front, -2.1 in the rear. Any tips on how you installedthe camber bolts? I have the whiteline 16mm in the upper bolt

According to the SPC instructions, the camber bolts are for the lower hole.
