Yo what up everyone...I know this is a newbie question so I'll take all the newbie remarks from everyone...I'm gonna get rims and some tein basics...do I need a camber and with what widths is it necessary or just recommended??? Thanks...

P.S. I'm looking at a 245 or 255/35/19 for the front and a 275/35/19 for the rear

 

Do A Search. LoL he knows me in person i already told you my thoughts.

 

Yea...sorry about the above reply...He needs to make himself feel better by trying to show me up on the forum...By the way, he's my first cousin and lives 10 minutes from me...LOL

 

Just had my G lowered with Tein S-Tech and did not need a camber kit.

 

cool thanks for the reply

 

G6MT - could you post your "after" alignment specs? Once again I've found myself considering a drop for more negative camber...

 

These Sorry Tramps didn't put my before on the Datasheet, but heres the after, *Note* All they said was that it was way off.

Left Front: Actual -1.6 CAMBER Specified Range -0.8° / 0.7°
Actual 1/16° TOE Specified Range 7.0° / 8.5°

Right Front: Actual -1.6 CAMBER Specified Range -0.8° / 0.7°
Actual 1/16° TOE Specified Range 7.0° / 8.5°

Left Rear: Actual -2.3° CAMBER Specified Range -1.2° / 0.2°
Actual 3/32° TOE Specified Range 0° / 3/32°

Right Rear: Actual -2.4° CAMBER Specified Range -1.2° / 0.2°
Actual 1/16° TOE Specified Range 0° / 3/32°

Front: Cross Camber: Actual -0.0° Specified Range -0.8° / 0.8°
Cross Caster : Actual ----- Specified Range -0.8° / 0.8°

Setback : Actual -0.10°

Rear: Total Toe : Actual 5/32° Specified Range 0° / 7/32°

Hope this means something to you?

 

if this is way off, does anyone know what it should look like?

 

You have to remember, I purchased my G with custom wheels and they probably never re-aligned the car after doing so. but my post shows what the specified ranges are. That I would assume should be a starting point.

 

G6MT - thanks for posting your alignment specs. Not sure if I agree with you about not needing a camber kit since all your camber is considerably outside the factory recommended range. However, I have seen quite a few folks running with that much negative camber in these forums. Do you ever have trouble with hard launches in a straight or is wheel slip a non-issue for you? Any sign of early/excessive wear on the inner parts of your tires? I'd appreciate your feedback. Thanks,

Mike
