I've got a Megan rear kit.. decent price and does the job. It has been installed for over a year and thus far no problems.

i dont have a rear kit, but when i went to get an alignment, they guy said he woulndt shim it because that would be dangerous. so i rock 0.0 in the front, and -3.6 in the rear

I had my car aligned and they told me that my car camber is on the max limits of the specification (-2.0) but they said it is ok, there will no problem with that :-) and even they did not recommend the camber kit.

why not? wearing out your tires even more. What's the cost of a Blox kit?

Hahahahah you saw that?

Just go to the hardware store and get some grade 8 bollts that are about 10 mm longer. Then get a couple washers and shim it out with the washers. Set the car back on the ground and use a level to check the camber. I think I used three on each side and have about -.0.5 degrees. There is nothing dangerous about it. The alignment shop wouldn't do it because of legal liability reasons.

yeah kinda wishing i was five lug right now

how do you do this?

You will need to find longer bolts for the rear upper control arms and a hand full of washers. Place the bolts through the control arm and slip the washers behind onto the bolts. add or subtract washers to Change you camber

does this work the same as a camber kit? any consequences from doing this?
