Camber Help

I have a 2013 Scion FRS, and when I bought it originally, it was a slammed car. 19-inch rims, and Eichbach Sportline Lowering Springs, Adjustable Control Arms, everything.


I've realized even though I loved the look of the car, I need to make it a more driveable/usable car for daily driving. Scraping was getting annoying.

I went ahead and sold the 19-inch rims, and bought some 17x8 O.Z. Alleggerita HLTs, got some 225/45ZR-17 Continental Extreme Contact DWS 06 Tires, and I am now raising the car up with some RSR Down Springs. I believe the RSR Down Springs lower the car around a little over half an inch.

I'm not too familiar with camber at all, and now that the car isn't as slammed. I would like to get some camber upfront and in the rear so I can still have some fun-spirited driving in the corners, but also maintain a somewhat daily drivable setup.



Opinions on what degrees I should be running both front and back?

^^yes. A basic set of cam bolts will be sufficient for a car that just sees daily driving. Max those suckers out and go!!
