yeah i took my car into the local performance shop 2 get the tires balanced and aligned. They told me that the rear wheels have negative camber becuz its lowered. They said sumthin abt buyin a camber kit to fix this. Do i really need to get this? What r the consequences of not buyin one? Thanks 4 ur help.

 

camber kits arent too expensive and theyll help u a lot. If u dont get a camber kit u are goin to go thru tires like whoa.

 

yeah, the inside edge of the tires will wear out really fast.

 

unless u lowered it, that should have been explained to you from the begining.

 

No it was lowered wen i bought it. how much should i expect 2 pay for a decent camber kit?

 

the camber being off shouldnt wear out your tires faster, inless your toe is off. it it will wear the inside of your tires a lot more then the outside from negitive camber. it will also wear out wheel bearings n such faster due to the weird angles that they werent designed to work at.

 

no, if the cambers off it will wear faster, but if the toes off, it will wear them out REALLY fast. get a camber kit, then get a professional alignment. a good camber kit can be had around 200-250 bucks for all four wheels. check ebay. but youll want the skunk2 style. try them, Omnipower, and Blox. then youll need the rears separately, most of the good fronts dont come in a set with the rears.

 

if you rotate your tires regularly they will last longer. my civic had coilovers all the way down on my 17's, rotated them every 3-5 months and got 2 years out of the tires.

 

Well, whether or not the tires wear faster is not actually the most important issue. The worst part about having severe camber problems is that you're reduced to about 50-60% of your original traction... and traction problems will almost always screw you big time.

 

good point.
