"Install days" sometimes last til 1AM...frequently, I suppose. I have to say though, it's a pretty badass camber kit compared to the MRP and even the speedybnz.

how much did that run you?

Im sittin on c/o but i dont think its low enough and its messing with my camber. I'm wearing on my tires from the middle towards the outside of the tire. I'm thinking when I get my wheels [235/40/18], I'll drop it a few clicks on the tiens to level it out. that make sense?

He said he paid $330 from K1 Motorsport.

If you're wearing the outside of your tires you definitely need to drop it more!

MJ, from my calculations your camber is still off by 0.015 degrees on the left side and 0.021 degrees on the right side.
