Hello everyone.

I recently lowered my S on skunk2 springs. I had it taken to Kal Tire for a wheel alignment and they got it done but told me I need a couple special "Ball-Joints" to get my rear camber adjusted correctly (which won't fit on my car unless I have 17" or larger rims, I have AP1 rims right now) so I currently have negative camber in the rear. I notice that whenever I accelerate the car pulls slightly to the left, so whenever I shift during spirited acceleration I get a little jerk to the right. It makes for going around corners quickly or even revving through 3rd gear a little sketchy whenever I have to shift. Can this be caused by negative rear camber? Any thoughts or input would be appreciated, thanks!

(previous post I was under my buddies account by accident, oops)

i saw the double post but with different accounts.

First double check tire pressures...jerking like that is usually due to tire pressure.

Second...what are your alignment specs now?

I also had an issue similar to yours, s2k aok. Proper air pressures fixed the pulling problem for me.

It was definitely a bit unnerving at seed.

My current alignment specs are as follows: (in degrees)

Front

Caster Left: 6.07
Caster Right: 5.94
Camber Left: -0.40
Camber Right: -0.63
Toe Left: -0.06
Toe Right: 0.02
Toe Total: -0.04

Rear

Camber Left: -2.25
Camber Right: -2.19
Toe Left: 0.26
Toe Right: 0.38
Toe Total: 0.64
Thrust Angle: -0.06

With the exception of my rear camber angles everything else is within factory specs. I'll check my tire pressure and see if that helps.

Rear camber is supposed to be between -1.67 and -1.33 degrees.

So I've got all my tires at 32psi but I am still having the problem. One thing I forgot to mention, my rear tires are different brands, could this cause the problem? Thanks in advance.

Different tires make a big difference even if your front and rears are different from each other.
