I'm about to align my car with H&R springs and am curious what the current specs are with the drop and no alignment.

I'm also curious how much it can be adjusted w/o an alignment kit, and then how much it could be adjusted w/ just the basic camber kit (pt.# 72265 from SPC).

I just had my alignment done "correctly" after two sets of rear tires burned up.

First set was the OEM's with no camber kit or toe adjustment

Second set was first set of Goodyear F1's with camber kit, but dis-regarded toe adjusters, not my decision.

Third Set...*crosses fingers* the alignment was put back into spec perfectly with the toe bolts washers.

Basically you need the camber adjustment kit if you dont like buying new tires.

I got the Eibach kit, that SPC kit is pricey from what I saw and all I needed to buy was the springs and the 150 dollar camber/bolt kit from eibach and everything went into place...finally.

Ill get the specs and scan em and post up the pic soon.

I'm between -1.7-1.9 all the way around...no camber kits on front or rear. I will probably get 15K miles on my TR1s...I'm pretty happy with that as I get the handling benefits and tires aren't going out every few thousand miles.

I have Eibach Srpings with the Rear Toe Bolt Kit, and Rear Camber Arms, The Back is perfectly back into Spec, and the Fronts are both like -1.4 both sides, So basically, whatever drop srpings you use, u need the Camber and Toe Kit, if you don't want to burn through tires like crazy!
