2000 Accord Coupe<~~~~In need of camber kit
I have a 2000 Accord Ex Coupe 5 Speed with Eibach Pro-kit springs and I went to sears today and had them install some tires I bought off of tiretrack.com (bridgestones). Well I had them do mounting and balancing and also an alignment. They showed me the paper and said my rear left camber was out of camber manufactures specifications. So now I guess I have to purchase a camber kit or else am going to go thru alot of tires on that side, well here is a pix of the results that they gave me. My questions is that the only thing that is out of whack? Or anything else? Also what is a good brand for a camber kit? Thank you all for your responses.

Go back to Tirerack and order the Eibach rear camber kit. This will fix the problem. What a waste, you had springs installed without the camber kit. Now you have to pay twice for a quick install.
At least I have an excuse the camber kit did not yet exist when I purchased my springs. :naughty:

About the rear. Honestly, you can probably live just fine with -1.4 degrees. How low are you dropped? That's only .4 out of spec.
But if you really want the most life out of your tires, camber kit will help.
