    Camber Kit Questions

    Where do i get a kit from? I need the kit for all 4 wheels.

    How do I install them? I know my way around the car pretty good, so it shouldnt be too hard. But does anyone have any pictures or DIYs?

    My camber is off by 1.85 degrees. average on all 4 wheels.

    do i NEED it? no. but 40 series tires are not cheap. and it sucks having 1 side go bald while the other still has some good tread left. I would rater fix the problem so I dont have to get new tires every year.

    I think there might me something wrong with your suspensions.
    All of us including myself have 8th gen lowed with S.tech (1.8 front 1.5 rear) have no camber problem at all.
    Hope you can fix it with those camber bolts thingy. :)

    You might want to go get the car aligned, I had this problem when I put 17s on. But when I took it in to get it aligned it fixed everything. Hope this helps

    I've got a camber kit for my 8th gen. It's not really necessary unless you're planning on lowering the car quite a bit.

    im not asking if its necessary or not, im just asking where to get the bolts/kit at, and how hard they are to install. every year i have to get a new set of tires because the inside of the tires wear out alot faster than the outside. I appreciate the concern, but im hearing alot of echo in here "its not necessary" Ive seen the numbers, my camber is off an an AVERAGE of 1.8 degrees for all 4 of my wheels.

    its for a 2002
