Eibach Prokit 07+ Sedans
For those of you on the eibach prokit, have you needed to install a camber kit, or does a standard alignment do the job to maintain factory specs?
I'm also interested in this question. I want to drop my 07 sedan on eibachs and need to know what parts i need besides the springs. I have OEM sport 18" wheels on right now
I believe you can get to near factory specs but not exactly within.. especially in the rear. Maybe one of the Eibach users can chime in to confirm. Either way, camber kits are never required but recommended due to the excessive inner tire wear you will experience after going low. However, more than the negative camber, it is the off toe angle that eats up your tires.
IMO it's good to at least pick up the rear camber kit and skip the front ones. Fronts cost near double the rear camber kit. So try it out w/o it first to see if you can live w/o it. I've been driving w/o one and still got decent mileage on my tires with my H&R drop (even lower than the Eibach drop).

If i'm spending 800-1000 on tires I think I'm going to spend the additional 300 to make sure that I'm not replacing my tires every 10K miles due to uneven wear. I just want to know if the front is necessary or if most people are getting full life out of their front tires with no camber arms.

you can also just rotate your tires.. as long as your toe is in check and camber isnt that bad you should not have to much of an issue. Im running bc coils pretty low with no camber kits. Toe is in spec and camber is at -2 all around
I have these springs on my coupe o7 and yes I run a camber kit/toe bolt (i didn't need the toe bolt when i had it aligned) on the rear and I'm soon to get one for the front.. rule of thumb.. anything below and inch drop a camber kit is recommended.
