Camber Kit for the S?
What it did??
Those tire are practically bald across the tread. The inner wear on the rear tires is due to toe settings as well as camber. They were well and truly worn out long before you corded the insides.
Note: I can't believe you people drive around with tires that look like that and then complain about how the car handles in the wet

Even with the factory adjustments, the closest they could get was -2.1 rear and -1.8 front. Still not close to the factory settings!
Are you trying to get LESS camber, or more?
Either way, the stock camber can DEFINATELY be altered more + or - than those settings...

OK, you guys dont seem to understand what I am getting at. The factory camber camber settings are adjustable, that is correct. When my car was on the alignment rack, the tech brought me out there to see what was going on.
For arguments sake, the factory settings for rear camber is -1.6. When I got the car lowered, and took it in for alignment, the rear camber was at -3.5....way off! He began adjusting, and as he would turn the screw for the camber adjustment, it would go down gradually, then when it hit -2.1 it would jump back to -3.5, so it could not be adjusted any closer to stock then that. The same applies to the front, he was about 0.5 degrees off from factory. I am trying to get as close as possible to the factory settings again, so I can still have some decent tire life.
As far as complaining about driving in wet, I dont, thats why I have my Acura......The S only comes out in dry weather, so dont count me in that crowd. These tires were worn out in september, and the car went into storage in October. I brought the car out of storage in February, and I got the 04 wheels right before I brought the car out of storage, so those tires were not driven on that much, especially when I found out how bad they were on the inside.

I am new so i apologize in advance. Eveyrone on s2ki keeps saying s2k is factory adjustable camber. can someone please point to a photo of the part that you turn to adjust camber? I dont plan to do this myself but it is good to know.
Yes, this item is legit and offered by us. We will be listing a sale soon on these in the sponsor section. They will definitely help correct the camber problem experienced on the daily driven lowered S. Also, for those who autocross their vehicles looking for more negative camber, this kit will do that as well. There are some S2KI members who have purchased this kit and are very happy with it. I have installed them on the front of my personal vehicle and they definitely do that job. PM me if you have any questions.
A member on this site will be writing a tech article on the installation soon.
