Tanabe NF210... Camber Needed?

Does Tanabe NF210 need camber kit? I heard the rear wasnt too bad. Please let me know if you have Tanabe and what you did with them.

No camber kit is needed with the Tanabe springs.. The drop is soo conservative and clean there's no need for one.. But aftermarket camber kits are a good thing to have in case you change your mind to upgrade to coils and lower your car more.. So keep that in mind.. Happy modding

I didn't have mine on long enough to get my alignment after they settled.

Yes. Needed alignment. Camber could be corrected to within spec with a regular alignment.

No camber and no alignment needed.

I have over 11K miles on mine and the tires are in good shape and drivability is great.

Difficult to believe no alignment needed. What are you alignment specs if you have them? Did you have it checked?
