STR Prep - Suspension and Alignment
Sorry if this has been asked and answered already (I skimmed every page in this thread but could have missed it): how much camber can you get at a moderate ride height (say 13" hub center to fender) *without* a camber kit?
I'm thinking about doing a low budget STR build, and am wondering how much I'd be giving up if I skipped a kit.
Thanks!
Edit: I can get between -1.8 and -2.0 degrees at stock ride height, depending on the rack and the day.

Anyone done good testing on camber settings for the Rivals? I'm -3.1F/-2.7 rear and the insides seem to be wearing quicker then the outsides. I do drive the car on the street some so I'm not 100% sure if my wear is slightly inaccurate because of that.
So to get less than -2.7 in the rear I'd have to raise the car up. Question is how much do I have to raise it to get .2 less degrees? Anyone know?

Anyone have thoughts on the Eibach Multi Pro R2 Coils with 650 F 650 R spring rates? Picked those up and wondering if the square setup will be ok to start with. Other mod would be either the Moddicitions or V2 adjustable bar so I would be able to get some high rates to compensate up front. Never ran square before and hope its going to be ok to start with.

While it is purely theoretical, you can get a general idea of car balance with roll rate biases. Per a discussion with mLeach, however, a national competitor's setup threw all that theoretical nonesense out the window... It is a good rule of thumb, no less, and has allowed me to make big bar changes without dramatically affecting balance.
