Alignment specs after F Sport spring installation
Ok so I just got my car aligned a few days ago after getting my F Sport springs installed. Everything was able to go back into factory spec except for the camber on the front drivers side wheel. The max camber determined by Lexus for the front are 1.1 degrees. My passenger side is right at 1.1 and my drivers side is 1.3 degree. Now toe and everything else is perfect and i'm not worried because it's only camber and it's still not that agressive. However is this normal? I've never heard of anyone else having this issue with F Sport springs so I find it to be odd. To be honest i'm not suprised as the drivers side sits about 1/4 inch lower than the passenger side.

f-sport springs (and just about any other lowering springs offerings on the market for the 2is) are conservative enough such that they shouldn't throw your alignment too far out of factory specs - if at all.
if everything else looks fine, i wouldn't worry too much about it but would still keep an eye on the tire wear. but if it bothers you, ask your alignment shop to put the car back on the alignment rack and double-check the specs again.
