Camber Kit for H & R
I just bought the H & R sport springs for my 99 SI. I'm looking for the camber kit for the front and rear. Im riding on 16" Rota Grids w/205-45-16 BFGoodrich G-Force Sports. Does anyone know what camber kit is best for this setup? Any help at all would be great!

HEy could you post up some pic with the springs on your car? I have a rear camber kit from ebay and it works great. I just want to see your car with the hr sports cause i am thinking of getting rid of my teins and getting either the race or the sport.

Am i better off just calling H & R to ask them what camber kit to use with their sport shocks? I didn't even see a camber kit that they offered for this. Does Skunk2 make good camber kits?

I have Ingalls in the rear and the Skunk2 in the front. I am impressed with the performance of both. They have been on for well over two years and hold the camber perfectly. If the Skunk2 is a little expensive, Omni Power makes a replica of the Skunk2 one. If you are extra cheap, washers and longer studs for the rear will work just as well as the Ingalls, but it will be harder to adjust.

When you get it all done and need a 4 wheel alignment go to Firestone. When I set up my car with all new suspension and camber kits F/R I shopped around for a alignment and found out that Firestone has a Lifetime Guarantee. Cost me around 80 if I remember right. No restrictions because of lowering or camber kits. Even if I lower it for the track, get it aligned, then raise it back for the street, they align it again. Just a thought.

Why would it matter what camber kit you used? They are adjustable. You can use them for lowering a car from 1'' to whatever.

The H&R sport springs lower my car 1.75" in front and 1.5" in rear. To adjust the camber, there must be a certain amount i have to do for the front and rear. What tells me how much I have to go to adjust the camber?

Many places will not align cars that are lowered let alone guarantee it. And with this lifetime guarantee they’ll do it for free every time you need an alignment, as many times as you want. Oh you could pay every time you tweek the suspension if someone wants to, but why?
Guarantee as written.
“Purchase of this Firestone MasterCare Car Service Lifetime Alignment Agreement* entitles you to the type of alignment service indicated and will be performed at no charge every 6,00 miles, or whenever needed.
The Lifetime Computerized Alignment Certificate in non-transferable and valid for as long as you own the vehicle for which it was original purchased.”
Just trying to help.
