camber and toe help!!
hey guys i need some help i lowered my car with the tein basics adjustables and i installed the spc camber kit in the rear and went to tuffy to get and alignment they did it and said it was good i dont know what i did with the print out but when i drive i can see black stuff on the bumper and the tires are hot. i took it back and they said they fixed it but its the same with the black stuff.
i dont have the camber kit in the front can that be a problem?? i want to drive the car but i dont want to buy tires every couple of months.
does anyone know somewhere in orlando i can take it to fix it???
also for the front can i just get the camber kit or do i need camber and toe its so damn expensive.

hmm
not sure but if you are seeing rubber on the rear bumper it sounds to me like your toe is way off aka too much toe in. cant really tell from the pics though. do you have a full on rear shot? also how about one that is looking down from the top of the fender?

So you installed the rear camber arms but no toe bolts? The toe bolts are inexpensive and fairly easy to install with a Dremel. Do that and take it to Tires Way on East Colonial (east of Semoran) or TredAlign on John Young Parkway.
It looks like you do need a front camber kit, which are adjustable a-arms. In front, toe is not adjusted by the a-arms.
You have to pay the price to lower a car correctly.

Since the toe bolts are installed, either your alignment shop doesn't know what they are doing or something else is wrong. Tires do get hot sometimes. it is over 90 degrees outside and the asphalt is hotter.
Pics of the specific problem would be good.
