Camber bolt - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

Hello guys.

I lowered 1" mine with Eibach Pro kit but my rear wheels seems to be cambered but not in the front, is it normal behavior?

sorry for the noob question.. Im asking this because I got my 18x8.75 xxr 527 all around but front poke out too much compare to the rear.

If I want to buy them where should I go?

Thanks in advance.

It's normal due to the front and rear suspension design. The front is a MacPherson strut and the rear is multi-link design.

You have a couple of options as far as camber bolts for the front.
-OEM crash bolt (can buy at Subaru or Toyota)
-SPC camber bolt
-Whiteline camber bolt

I believe Whiteline is just the SPC camber bolt but rebranded. SPC/Whiteline may get you a little more camber (maybe 2 tenths), but they rust a lot quicker. I opted for OEM bolts.

Should I install them at the Shop or its DIYable?

Thank you..

You could install them yourself... but to get a specific amount of camber out of them you should get an alignment. Most shops that do alignments will put them on for you in a couple minutes and then they can dial them in with the alignment.
