Finally lowered the ride on Tanabe DF120
drop is nice! as for the speed bumps i avoid them. sometimes if theres a gap in the middle of the speedbump i aim to go sideways over that, helps with less scraping, but if its just one long speedbump and doesnt have that gap in the middle i try to avoid...
Clean drop! Looks great. I always avoid speed bumps lol, I always take the road with less potholes/bumps even if it's twice as long. Get a rear camber kit with toe bolts. You can get by without installing any on the fronts.
thanks for the advice guys, every time I see a speed bump or an incline now I take it slow and I hope for the best lol.
Got an alignment done and they were able to get my front and rear toe within spec but my camber has pretty much doubled after lowering.
Left front: -2.4 camber (-1.2 camber before drop)
Right front: - 2.4 camber (-1.1 camber before drop)
Left rear: -3.3 camber (-1.6 camber before drop)
Right rear: -3.4 camber (-1.7 camber before drop)
So with these numbers, I'll definitely need rear camber kit or can I still get by okay since my toe is within spec?

The rear camber is getting severe but you'll be okay since the toe is good. You will see camber wear but it's not like your tires are going to disappear within a couple months.
hey guys, sorry to bump up my thread but I need some verification. I ended up buying a NRG rear camber kit and had the kit installed today but when the shop installed the camber kit and did the alignment they couldn't reduce my camber. Without the kit my camber was -3.4 degrees with 0.08 degrees toe and now with the kit installed its at -3.6 degrees camber with 0.06 degrees toe. Shop said if I want reduce my camber they can do it but then my toe would be out.
What the heck? I thought getting a camber kit would bring my camber back within spec? Is it because I need to get aftermarket toe bolts too?

Ditch the NRG and get a quality set up like SPC, SPL, or Stillen. Also make sure you get toe bolts and enlarge the hole like mentioned above.
