Default Camber kits ?

Hey.

I bought a s2000 last year with eibach pro kit springs on the car. So as I was looking at the tires the other day. The rear tires have lots of premature wear from the tires being on a slant a bit. There is no camber kit on the car right now so im going to buy some for the back.

Do I need to buy some for the back or can the camber be adjusted enuff without me buying a camber kit ?

So if anyone have the eibach prokit set up on there s2ks. What did you do about your camber?

You don't need a camber kit. You just need a more reputable, more knowledgeable alignment shop. Many shops have the most expensive alignment equipment but not too many have the qualified technician to operate it. Gotta ask around in your area that have done alignment on an S2000 and have done successfully.

Where are you from? Check your local sub-forum and post your question there. Someone will recommend a shop near where you live. Honda dealer is not always the best place to go for an S2000 maintenance.

I had mine installed in August. My shop told me they were able to align it correctly, but there was no more adjustment left.

I've looked for a camber kit for my S when I got my Eibach springs and couldn't find one...Come to find out the S doesn't need a camber kit unless you're gonna be "dumped". Then good luck finding one. Our S already comes with a non adjustable coil over system...just not height adjustable. You can adjust the camber and toe, though.
