View Full Version : Negative Camber after TRD Springs for Rear wheels?

Like the title says, did anyone who did the TRD springs w/o the struts end up with a slight negative camber in the rear?

one would assume that lowering the car would indeed induce negative camber. is it enough to cause uneven tire wear? if you keep it under 2" probably not.

I have a small camber as well on Teins. It's normal.

Yup had a negative camber. Don't know if it would affect tire wear but I had an alignment done anyway.

You will have increased negative camber as a result of lowering the car. However, there is enough adjustability in the tC's suspension to return the camber to normal. The alignment specs for the TRD springs are the same as stock.

Thank you fro the responses.

I will have the alignment checked. Its good to know nothing is wrong.

i just got mine aligned a few days ago... the rear two were off about a degree each... front were okay though

after springs settle the alignment will be off. There are a lot of alignment adjustments on the tC. I would recomend an alignment after the springs settle. Shoot I wish I had the alignment adjustments on my xB like the tC has.

Cars w/ independent rear ends will have some negative when lowered from stock height. That's just the nature of the engineering. Unlike xAs and xBs that solid rear ends.
