If I install Tein S-Tech springs in my g35 coupe would I need to purchase a camber kit also or can I just get my tires realigned?

when your camber is off, you dont get tires realigned, you get your suspension components realigned. Your choice of purchasing camber kits solely depend on how much negative camber you want to run and if you mind slightly uneven tirewear.

If you want very stock camber settings, yes you will need camber kits in order to get it perfect, and they are not cheap. It's more worth it if you dump your car and get camber kits.

 

Not required with S-Techs but recommended if you want OEM spec alignment. I would recommend at least a rear kit. I currently have S-Techs with a rear kit to keep it in spec. My fronts without a kit are at -1.7 camber (oem is -0.3 - -1.2) which is not too bad without a kit. Hope this helps. BTW I am running the G S-Techs.

 

^ dont listen to G SEDAN he never knows what hes talking about. I'm jk. If you decide not to put a camber kit make sure you get an alignment asap to correct toe. The drop will affect toe as well as camber.

 

Ok so I should atleast get a camber kit in the rear otherwise inside of my tires will wear down. Thank you guys for your help!

 

Hold it Spike, were not done here! Our cars have zero adjust ability in it's suspension, if you lower it any it will require you get the rear camber kit and the adjustable a-arms for the front....unless of course you enjoy buying tires on a regular basis....and then there's the noise. When the front tires start to have their inside quarters worn they start making a howling
noise that gets old very quick....your choice.

People are accustomed to getting the rear only because they usually run wider tires in the rear (more expensive) and the front adjustable a-arms were very pricey.

Prices have gone down a lot since then, these days, you can get a SPC front a-arms, front shin kits, rear camber arms, and rear toe bolts for $525 shipped from one of our forum sponsors. That is what I have and IMO that is worth it. With my drop, my front was -3.5 degrees, I don't know about you, but that's way too much for me.

 

The rears have some room for adjustment...enough adjustment for a mild drop.

 

SPC front arms are a horrible idea for the coupe. They're fine for the sedans and 350z's.

 

Good call Calvin, that's why I went with Cusco adjustable a-arms. Maxed out that was all the adjustment I needed to bring my alignment back to OEM specs -1.23 per side....

^^^it should also be noted that cusco arms are intended to add negative camber. however, they do have some room for positive adjustment.

spl is the way to go if you've got camber issues up front.
