Aftermarket LCA
ok, some of you may have seen my post about the washer trick. well, in order for me to get pretty close to 0 degree, i gotta add like 4 or 5 washers. however, i was looking around at some retailers and came upon some omnipower lca's. it says they are shorter than stock, to help bring the bottom in, therefore making my tire have less camber. is this true? does anyone know how much shorter they are? im trying to decide if i wanna buy a pair

from robear racing:
LCA's are an essential part to your car's suspension. When lowering your car your wheels will start to butterfly inward at the top which makes your tires ride on the edge. This increases wear on your tires as the sidewalls are the weakest part of your tire. This also means that there is less tire on the ground which means loss of traction around turns. LCA's reduce camber so that more of your tire touches the ground, keep your tires from rubbing your fender and allow for a wider wheel and tire combination. These LCA's provide light-weight performance with an enhanced appearance to your suspension.
WHAT OK YEAH!

negative camber isnt that bad if its close to spec, i have a front camber kit and its still has some negative camber, i only had bad tire wear when the toe was out of spec on both the front and back.
