Wheels look good on the car. How much camber did the bolts give you? usually cam bolts give you about - 2 degrees so if youre running 2 sets I would assume it should be - 4 degrees, but it doesnt look like it.

It's no where near -4. I'm at the shop now, on a brand new hunter and its -1.3 and -1.4 deg front. Less than a degree each on the rear. With tanabe springs

But it's not a cam bolt. It's just an OEM bolt that's necked down in the center to allow the knuckle to move closer or further from the strut.

i purchase spc cam bolts, and they work wonders, -1.5 does make a difference when you tuck rims on bags.

So I ended up getting SPC camber bolts. They are only $29 shipped for me. Got -2.6 and -2.3 front camber with BC coilovers installed.

Gonna need to get her some rear arms... too much camber.





wheel is slightly turned but you get the idea...

Box says 1.75 +/- adjustment so they are correct... which means I got about -.5 or so from lowering the car more.

I am just thinking aloud for the arms, looks like that's what adjust the camber for the rear, like my old Mazda3.
