bbszero 12-08-2010, 06:34 PM Do they have toe correction? Also should be in the classifieds.
kurly311 12-09-2010, 12:16 AM Well the camber kits do NOT include toe correction. Having toe correction with camber shims do not have any meaningful affect on the car. since the camber already positions the wheel and tire in an awkward position. Just make sure you have good alignment.
Any more questions, feel free to ask. If I don't know the answer, I will find it.
PS: i would like to keep this thread CLEAN. I'd like to think we are all mature adults.
Thank You.
bbszero 12-09-2010, 03:40 AM I'm not looking to trash your thread, you did it well enough on your own by saying that toe correction on camber shims on our cars does nothing meaningful. That is just ridiculous! It's been proven time and again that it makes a HUGE difference in improving premature tire wear.

Tire's will wear down no matter what, using camber shims. (even with toe correction...)
So NO, there are no toe correction included.

Sid_xBicious 12-09-2010, 03:52 PM may I ask who made/manufacture these camber shims?

Me an my uncle, who has been a machinist for 25 years plus sat down an measured all the necessary parts that were relevant to make this happen.so hopefully that answers you question.
Yellow_Sub 12-09-2010, 09:23 PM no toe correction? FMT! (f$*k my tires!) theres a reason EC shims arent made/sold anymore and that is why. dancar's shims have it. bbzero's shims have it. one ton garage shim have it. garson shims have it. ancelsion shims have it. i think u see where im headed with this lol. EC shims didnt have it and it absolutely RAPED tires. so if u have a sponsorship from a tire company then it wont make a difference but for those of us that dont have one it will make a difference. not trying to be an ___ but dont tell people information that has been proven FALSE over the years just so u can unload ur products :)

bbszero 12-10-2010, 12:04 AM PRIVATE PARTY CLASSIFIED (PPC) RULES AND REQUIREMENTS
You must achieve SL Member status (50 posts) before you can post in PPC.
We implemented this rule in 2005 to reduce the amount of bogus sales that go on in our classifieds. It has worked extremely well and although we get a few complaints here and there (from new members looking for a fast sale) it has nearly eliminated complaints between traders.
There is now an ADDITIONAL requirement that you must have been a registered user of ScionLife.com for a minimum of 14 days in order to start a thread in the PPC forums.
50+ posts and 14+ days to start a thread in PPC is the rule.
To post a new topic in PPC you need to be part of the 'SL Member' usegroup. To check if you are authorized view your public profile and you should see 'SL Member' under your username (assuming you have 50 posts). Members are automatically added as they reach 50 posts, although there is a bug every once in awhile. Let us know if you should have access and you don't and we will fix it immediately.
Anytime you post a new topic or a reply it will be recorded in your account. If you post bogus posts just to bump your post count up then the mods will get mad at you, hunt you down and torture you... ...or just ban you. Some forum area posts are removed if they have no replies within a certain period of time, so if you posted many posts in those forums then when the messages were pruned your post count went down when the posts were removed!
Private Party Sales Only!
This area is for PRIVATE PARTY sales only, there will be no commercial sales here.
"Group Buys" must be in the Sponsored Sales forum.
All Private Sales Must be posted here. Including items that are "Local Pick-Up Only."
Users that can not comply with this will be temporarily locked out of the forums.
Guidelines:
-Please include a good subject on your ad so people will know what you are selling without having to open each ad.
-Also, include a price in your subject if possible.
Example: FS Wheels 18x7 Borbet Type Z for xB $600
FS = For Sale, WTB = Want To Buy, WTT = Want To Trade
-Shipping or Local Pick-Up Only
-Make sure you include a DETAILED description of your product, photos are encouraged, and asking price.
-Also, don't forget to provide your contact information! (Email, Phone Number, and Location)
-Please do not reply to a post unless you need more information.
-If you think the price is too high or the product is not to your liking, please do not hassle the seller.
-If you see a post that violates any of the rules,
please click the http://www.scionlife.com/forums/templates/scionLife/images/lang_english/icon_warn.gif button and the Scion Staff will take care of it.
-No Sale Jacking. Please start your own thread.
-If your item is sold, please go back to your original post and edit the subject line and place -SOLD-
Then we will lock it.
- All sales are at the seller's and buyer's own risk. ScionLife.com is not responsible for any transaction between buyer and seller.
- It is recommended that you keep a record of all communications between buyer and seller until both are satisfied with the transaction.
- Please settle disputes between yourselves, it is not the mod's or admin's responsibility to act as a referee if there is a disagreement.
Thank you.
Darren & ScionLife Staff

Even cars require toe correction. Suggest you redesign your camber plates.
