Default camber plates for SC?

Stock camber angle eats up the inside edge of front tires.

So I am cheap! I am willing to sacrifice a little handling to save my $300 tires' lives. Does anyone know where to get the plates that will set the front wheels to zero camber?

These cars just the same as the GS series do not take lightly to lowering as there is not enough camber adjustment. Stock should be no problem with alignment with no premature tire wear.

There is a camber correct kit for this car made by Racing Produce Speed in Japan, but it is only for the rear.

Hah, perfect!!! Despite having my rear alignment fully maxed out, I still have negative camber. Now to make a call to get these things. Thanks Talwang.

You are welcome.
Those will cost you about $600.

I thought Daizen would have a rear camber correction kit made for this car at a lower price.
