Noob camber question
Hey guys,
Im lowering my car about -1.5 in with Flex Zs and hoping to get about -2/-3 is camber. Will the adjustment on the coils be enough or should I also be looking into getting RLCAs and toe arms? |

That's a significant drop, you will most likely need camber solutions front and rear, maybe toe arms at the rear.
Tein have adjustable tops on their pillow ball, if you get rubber tops you will need camber bolts. Bump steer may be a issue. Opinions may vary.

Lowering that much, you'll get anywhere between -2 to -2.5 deg natural camber on the rear. The alignment shop probably will only be able to make L and R match, but not able to change the degree much much more than approx +/-0.2 deg out from where natural camber sits.
Tein Flex Z has adjustable front camber plates, so -2 to -3 deg is easily achievable. I run Tein Flex A, ~1.25 to ~1.5 in drop. Didn't make precise before-after measurements, but the car sits at functional low without any additional parts. After I got it corner balanced and aligned, the car sits -3 deg F/-2.4 deg R. No rubbing or anything |
