Eibach ProKit + Alignment Questions.
All,
I searched around but could not find a specific answer to my questions.
Does anyone have the alignment specs after installing the Eibach's? Also, if you had an alignment performed after they settled, can you please provide the specs?
I ask because I just received these springs, and after reading so many opinions, it seems that some people say a camber kit is needed while others disagree. I would like to get as close as possible to factory specs without needing a camber kit, and most people seem to say that for this either the Eibachs or Tanabes are ideal.
Thanks!

Although the rear readings were after a camber kit was installed and it was way wacked out. I'd say both front and rear camber kits are needed, those that don't are going by looks, not specs.

^um that doesnt help much. running a couple degrees of negative camber isnt going to kill your tires. as long as you can keep your toe in spec and mild camber, you will be fine.

Rear Camber Before Alignment: -4.1!!
After: -1.2
Front: -2.1 The front isn't as bad as the rear but I am getting uneven tire wear so a front camber kit is definitely necessary.

I don't understand the question. The specs do not change depending on whether or not you have a camber kit. Are you asking to see what the "before" actual readings are with just Eibach prokit springs installed?

people w camber kits are going to say they need them, which is why they bought them.
Those without are going to say they dont need them.
Only way this would be proved if there is some1 running eibachs, and only ran eibachs from the start and can take a pic of tire wear or some neg camber.
Other then that im going to say you dont need camber, until im proved wrong.

I want to see how close the alignment gets on a car with eibachs with no camber kit. So I want to see the before and after numbers on the car.
