lowering spring and camber
HI guys, I am trading my current G sedan to the new g sedan. I want to lower the car with either H&R or Eibach. I want to know how bad are the camber on the tires as I know that there are no camber kit avaliable for the 07 sedan yet. I have a set of 19" rims from my old sedan that I want to put on the new sedan and I don't want to ruin those tires as they are pretty new.
what are the specs of those springs (which spring gives a little drop)? and about how many miles the camber will start to show on the tires?
thanks guys
I tried the search function but can't find any info that want.

Whut up man! Well I have Eibach's on my G, and it's not too aggresive a Drop. To Me it's just right! The H&R springs are a little more aggresive drop, think the H&R's drop the freont a little lower than the Eibach's, and the rear drop is about the same on both! there are alot of srings out there no for the new G Sedans, just do a search in the Picture Thread here, and you'll find alot of Pics, and you can choose which one you like! There are Rear Camber Kit's out only For our cars, I Installed my Rear Camber Kit's that I picked up from STILLEN web site. No Front Camber Arms yet, but STILLEN should have them out real soon.
As for how much drop,
EIBACH's: Front: 1.4 Rear:1.5
H&R's : Front 1.6 Rear 1.5
And your tires will wear out Unevenly eventually, so you need to get the Camber Kits! Wait like 2week or so for the springs to Settle, then get your Alignment done! Hope this helps you a little.

Eibach carry a rear camber kit for about $170, and Stillen has a front camber kit sale for I think $500 (I don't know if it is available now cuz whenever I call them they tell me it will, although it has been on their website for a while now).
Go to tirerack.com that's where I found the prices for both springs the cheapest. I'm looking into order these as soon as I find a place to get it installed. I have been hoping for a DIY to show up, but I guess I'm just gonna take it in to a local shop. Tough luck. LOL

most important is toe, if that's off, your tire can go out under 100 miles,
camber not as important, especially if you rotate,
as long as it's not worse than -3, I really wouldn't worry too much about it
old car had -2.5f/-2r, 0 toe f/r, no problems with premature tire wear whatsoever
