camber kit?

I am looking into getting a set of Coilovers for my FRS

I also want to get Camber Kit when i lower my car so I dont have to deal with bad camber wear on my tires all the time.

I been searching around and cant seem to come across any Camber Kits...

Has anyone on here gotten Camber Kits for their FRS/BRZ yet??

or if anyone knows where I can perhaps get a Kit for it?? if they even make a kit??

thanks

There are actually a ton of camber adjustment kits out now so you shouldn't have a problem adjusting the camber on your new coilovers! We have had good luck with the SPC stuff so we usually recommend them.

What about for stock setup in the front? Crash bolts and the Com-C Top Mounts which are on hold from the manufacturer? Anything else?

Why not use camber bolts? As Circuit Motorsports said SPC is a good brand and is the same as Whiteline and can usually be found at any auto parts store...think its part #81280 and would be better than the crash bolts.

Yeah. They can be a rear pain in the butt. You have to press the old bushings out which is the worst part.

Hotchkis Camber Plates. Great for Autocross, track, and daily driver. They come with the crash bolts and offer up to -3° of camber and build in +1° of caster.

For the Rear, camber arms are really the way to go, the eccentric bushings are the cheaper option but they are a serious pain to both install and adjust.

SPC makes a nice rear arm for a good price, nothing fancy, but it gets the job done. they also make a rear toe arm that works well in conjunction with the camber arm, with those two arms you can get A LOT of adjustment in the rear.

I wonder if these make a lot of noise. I don't see any rubber in them.
