how low can i drop a tc before i need a camber kit?

 

i would say go with the trd springs. I have the hotckis and the camber is noticable just not enough to bug me.

 

i want good stance with even tire wear.

 

trd is the way to go.

 

under a 2" drop all you need is an alignment (Tein H-Techs, TRD, Skunk2)
2" and over and you will need camber correction (Tein S-Techs, Hotchkis, Dropzone, Zenn and most coilovers)
Also, if you go over a 2" drop...you will eventually need new shocks because the stock shocks will only last so long (there have been people with S-Techs lasting around 30k miles before the shocks needed to be replaced)

 

Can't wait for mine to blow. HAHA.

 

by blow u mean ur shocks?

 

haha yeah chris... as soon as my shocks blow, coilovers here i come! but ummm buddhas.. i rock stech's, and with just an alignment, im within factory specs for all suspension related items (caster, camber, toe)

 

Harrison, i think i remember seeing a rear view pic of your car and your tires were at a negative camber...i might be wrong, it might be someone else. Do you have a pic of the rear view?

 

yep, tiny bit of camber. within spec though.



a perfect alignment when stock is at negative 56 minutes of camber. there's a range from like 1.5 degrees to 0 degrees to be consdiered within spec

 

also, that camber measurement is for when the suspension has no weight on it. with the addition of the weight of the car, camber will become even more negative.

 

hmmm...not bad, just a tad bit more negative camber than mine on H-Techs...and i've had em for close to 2 years with the same beautiful tires(Nitto 555 series) and still have plenty of tread life left and minimal inside wear on the rear tires. I retract my previous statement about S-Techs
