Default Need Some Help Here

alright so my car is lowered close to 4", so i needed to purchase a camber kit in order to fixed the negative camber i have on my front wheels, so i bought a skunk2 camber kit which is just the front upper arms that have an adjustable ball joint. it took me like 30 minutes to install the camber kit but when i took it to have it aligned with the new camber on it they told me they are gonna need my specs. i'm guessing they are talking about the specs for my front wheels and their alignment but i dunno. does anyone know where i can get these specs??? thanks in advance to any suggestions.

Your honda dealer will have your wheel specks, plus they should have them if they have a database too, but they might be referring to a aftermarket spec for performance, Good Luck

just say 0-1.5 degrees of negative camber, and everything else they should be prepared to do anyway. but get the rear kit on before you go spending the money on an alignment. i made that mistake.

You should leave it. The more camber the better, handling, around corners. Race circuit.
