So many choices out there for camber arms, Need to adjust the camber on my front end badly....

So far I have ruled out Godspeed as I don't trust their products at all.

SPC has always been great in the past and husband gets a pretty good deal through them.

read an old thread that suggested the Kentix arms were weak and bent on people, is this still the case, their site lists their Arms as "new" ? maybe they redesigned them?

Megan arms seem to only add negative camber.

Stillen are a little more than I want to spend....

any recommendations. Need to add a bit more positive camber or stock up on tires....

Kinetix FTW, thats what we install on 90% of cars in the shop (including my own) the old design had an issue where it could easily be installed upside down, which caused the bending your referring to, when installed properly we never saw that issue but with the new design they are even stronger and harder to mis-install. We also have a lot of customers running SPC, but I believe you will get more positive adjustability with the Kinetix.

BTW Rob have you held the SPL camber kits next to the other companies? Any thoughts as to which is lightest? I know unsprung weight makes a HUGE difference in the characteristics of a car so i was curious for when i get coils which company to go with.

I've never thought to, Let me see if I can round up the different sets and ill throw them on the scale.

Speaking of unsprung weight and coils, have you ever held coils vs a spring/shock setup? I''ve never actually weighed them (I really should) but they seem ALOT heavier. I think BC/Stance have a shipping weight of like 80lbs

+1 I have the SPC in the rear as well as the toe bolts.

I had Dan's old Kinetix front A-arms but never installed them.
