When dropping the IS, is negative camber a big concern? Are camber kits required? On my old car(G35 coupe), camber was a huge problem and ruined the inside of the tires. Is it the same case with the IS350?
Thanks in advance

Search must be broken again.

There are NO CAMBER KITS for the ISx50. Figure out a toe that works with your alignment guy, or suffer the same fate you suffered with your Infiniti. Fashion has a cost.

Sorry, Im still getting used to this forum style. Thanks for the link though. I appreciate the information!

I know a few people who had little or no toe or camber issues after dropping it....even at a 2" drop. They put it on the alignment rack and everything was in the green.

You shouldnt have anything to worry if your drop is anything up to 2 inches, maybe 2.5. At that level camber can be from -1.5 to -2 on all fours. I dont think this is bad. Around -4 is when I would expect to see some inside wear, though Im sure some suspension experts can correct me.

i just had mines dropped with teins 1.6 F / 1.2 R and had the car aligned and they told me that the camber cannot be fixed. although my toe was fixed within specs and improved my camber by like 1 degree or so

Thank you nabisco. I appreciate your input. That was very helpful! I will be ordering my CS coilovers this week!

Watch your rear tires for inside edge wear. That's a LOT of toe in for a rear axle. If it's 3/16 on each side it's ridiculous, if it's 3/16 total, it's still huge. My Supra runs ~1/64" on each side. Total rear toe is just over 1/32" (1mm, the minimum spec). This is specifically to prevent rapid inside edge wear.

Where did you get your alignment done?? I dropped mines on the same springs you got and it doesnt seem like I need it but Im probably still gonna get it.
