Camber?
Fellow KW owners:
Looking for specific advice on settings...just bought the system and will install soon. I have done the search thing and could not find much on what people are using for settings.
I only want to drop the front about an inch or so and probably won't drop the rear at all.
Let me know what you have experimented with, with settings and what you like/run.
Thanks,
Sco1oter

I've had my KW's on since July or so, I think. Not certain.
Anyway, I bought and had mine installed at Lou's (Amplified Motorsports). I just went with what he recommended and it has worked out great.
I am set at 11 in the front and 9 in the back. I do not have my car slammed, either, the drop is very conservative and I have been told it looks perfect. I have a one finger gap between all the wheels and wells. I'm riding on 20's.
The difference between the stock sport suspension and the KW's is very noticeable. Especially body roll when cornering... much better, tighter feel.
Freeway cruising, you won't really notice a difference, but in town you will. You will feel every dip, bump, hole, rut... as it should be, IMO. I feel much more "attached" to the road.
Here is a Pic of what my drop looks like:

Also, I have had my car aligned and my specs are almost the same on every corner: -1.8 camber. I don't have a camber kit and I JUST had my tires rotated and balanced on Saturday. They are wearing evenly and the front had 1/32 more wear than the rear after 8k miles.
