Noob Question About Camber Kits

[-ToM-]

Ok so I have camber for both front and rear tires after lowering my car with coilovers. I already went to the alignment shop and they told me I need to get a camber kit. But i was doing some research and i could only find stuff for "rear camber kit". And it comes wit like 2 arms. But do these work on the front too? If not how do the front ones look like and what they called. Also looking for where i can get both front and rear for a solid price. Thank you.

The rear camber kit is for the rear only. There isn't really a easy way to get adjustable front camber unless you get coilovers with front camber plates. As far as I know, KMAC and KSport both offer front camber plates (Pillowball mount), but they aren't very popular. I know the KMAC are prone to bending because it is thin aluminum. I've heard nothing about the KSport set.

Most people don't need front camber kits. The front camber is adjustable without a camber kit. It is only he read that requires a camber kit.

The fronts they can just re-slot, whereas the rears you need a camber kit for, AFAIK

okay thanks ! I got another question tho, shud i be getting the camber kit and doing a wheel alignment and all, if im probably gonna be switching my coilovers to stock for the winter? Or it doesnt hurt to get the camber kit now and just install it when im switching everything

Why would you remove the coils for the winter? I would just raise them myself and keep them on the car...saves a lot of hassle.

ya but, does the salt and everything increase the chance of them seizing and damaging them...
