SC4ALBERT

So after searching around, I basically found more questions and theories about my problem. I drive a 97 SC400 lowered on Espelir springs. Everything else is stock factory parts. My tires all around were negative camber almost to -3.0. I took it to Express Tire and they said they could only adjust camber in the rears but not the fronts so now my fronts sit at -2.0 still and the tire wear on the inside is horrible. I'm assumnig it's camber but it could also be toe. I'll check my alignment paper when I get home. I want my tires close to factory spec or pretty much just flush with the fenders. I looked into Ikeya Lower Control Arms on L-Tuned and thought about buying those to correct my camber problems because Daizen is obviously dunzo. So basically I'm trying to fix my camber problems with something that will last long term but I don't know what to get specifically or where to look. Someone direct me in the right direction or edumacate me. Thanks in advance.

Where in Cali are you located? I think you need to go to a more experienced alignment shop. It's a PITA to get our SC's aligned when lowered but not impossible. If you're in SoCal go to;

JC Autohouse

Temple City, CA 91780

Look for Cyrus, he's the best at what he do. He's got love for SC's also... I've seen guys with lower suspension than espelir and not have problems with alignment...

^^ thanks. I'm located in San Diego btw. I figured because I know that SC's can be adjusted with the stock parts already. I'll hit them up.

im going to be getting an alignment soon aswell, so pretty much the shop will be b/s'n me if they say they cant adjust for that much camber?

SC4ALBERT

pretty sure. Anyone know a shop in San Diego that can actually do SC's??

Oh you're from SD too? Go to Clarence Brown! the elderly guy doing the alignment there is a beast I tell ya! No computers, no sensors, no infrared! He does all calculation by mind and eyes! I can vouch for them! They also do custom alignments!

That is exactly right whenever u go get a alignment go to someone with experience and does lowered vehicles either way u will still have around 2 degree neg camber Though.you can just get upper control arm offset bushings that change camber by 1 degree so if your camber is 3 and you get 1 degree bushings u will have 2 degree camber, if u get 3 degree bushing you will have 0 camber

I had negative camber issues until i installed my control arms.
Not only did it fix the problem, but it created positive camber.
My car raised a full 1.5 inches after installing control arms.
