FYI - Camber off with Eibach

Just got an alignment done with Eibach pro-kit on. I knew the fronts would be a little of but was surprised at this.

Just FYI, the fronts are -1.5 left and -2.0 right.

Looks like I will need a front camber kit for the front now with only Eibach Pro-Kit on.

Every spring that lower oem ride height creates excesss camber and shifts the STATIC angle of the suspension mounting............also creates a different bumper steer toe curve angle.

Tires can still have accelerated wear even if the alignment is just within specs. My stock height sedan is within spec and still eats the insides of the tires.
