another suspension???

my car is lower with eibach prokits. i just pust some 20's on and the guy who did my alignment said that i need some camber kits. i would like to no what type of camber kits are good and do i need to get camber kit all the way around? also, any time i hit a dip the wheels are rubbing... is that because from the camber being off?

the car is a 05 coupe. the size of the rims in front is 20 8.5 and the rear is 20 10. the tire size is 245/35/20 and 285/30/20.

the spc camber kit would be the best for the rear. as for the fronts, it'd depend on how far outta spec you are.

your rears are rubbing your fenders. you'll need to cut/roll them to prevent this.

the front left is -3.0 and the front right -0.9. the rear left is -2.3 and the rear right -0.3.
it sounds like the rubbing is coming from the front b/c when ever i go up a hill i can hear the rubbing from the front end. if it is coming from the back do i have to rollin the quarter panel or cut it?

I think with 285 you need to roll the fender and the Spc camber is good

I am having a similar issue, I just put on my new volk GTS wheels, 19x8.5 with 245/35/19s and 19x10.5 with 285/35/19s. I haven't lowered it yet, but I have the Tein 350z h-techs. The rears already rub when I hit bumps so I am going to get the rear fenders rolled really soon. I have the spc rear camber kit that I am going to install. My question is, has anyones wheels rubbed before they lowered their car and am I going to have to put a little negative camber on the rear wheels? Also, do I absolutely need a front camber kit, if so I was thinking about getting the SPL front multilink arms. Did anyone have to have the front fenders rolled when they lowered their cars? Right now the noise from the rears rubbing when I hit bumps is really bothering me.

I have an 03 coupe and I have the same size wheels and i also have the eibach pro-kit. I went with the stillen adj. camber kit in the back and didnt mess with the front. I also rolled both fenders and both quarters up but big dips/bumps and high speed cornering will still cause the front to rub a little and i never hear anything from the back.

your front fenders should already be rolled (lip folded flat against the inside of the fender wall).
