Default negative camber...

I'm lowered on the flex and currently have a 3 degree camber in the back. I know they're somewhat adjustable, but the mechanic said that's the furthest it would go.

Could I get a camber kit like other cars and correct the camber settings back to its specs without raising the car? thanks, Danny

How much are you lowered?

I am down about 2" and mine got "back" to -2.1 in the rear (with me sitting in the car)

I have one finger gap all around. I wanted to go lower, but as it sits, I would have 3.5-4 if I was tucked.

revhi, I dunno...the mechanic told me that the closest he can pull to the specs is -3. my goal however is to get it back to its specs completely or something less than -1. are you aware of any aftermarket camber kits that can do this? (btw, thanks for the tips on rolling fenders, i did it and it does great )

I considered about selling the wheels, but I've somewhat decided to keep them for this show season and trade or sell it next time go around...the negatives in the back looks aggressive as hell!!

I'm going to either visit grand turismo, butler@ buford or some other place the other guy mentioned when and if i do find a camber kit. even 2.5 is a bad camber and not worth the extra $ IMO. When's the next auto-x?
