Default Camber kit when lowering XD ???

I intend to buy Eibach Pro-Kit coils (part # 8293.140) for my newly aquired XD. I searched the posts and did not find any thread that mentioned about XD requiring camber kit with these medium drop coils.

I don't want to pay for an alignment just to be told that they can't make it no matter how hard they tried and be paying for an alignment again once I have the kit on hand. So I want to be sure and buy the kits if required.

Any advice is welcome...

there are camber shims for the xd but not what you are wanting. your wanting corrected camber from the drop right? the rear camber isnt really correctable as there are no adjustments for it. but since your not dropping it very far you shouldnt really experience any negative camber. when i had my tanabe df210s 2" drop, i didnt mess with anything with the alignment and never got it aligned. i had them on for 24000 miles and my tires all have wore evenly. i dont think youve got much to worry about.

Default Thanks

In that case, I will just order the coils, install them and ride around 1000 miles to "break them in" then have the alignement verified.

Thanks for the hint...
