Ok i have air cylinders on my car, and when i drop the car the tires tuck like a 1/2 " in the wheel wells. I drive like 2-3" higher than that. The question is, do i need a camber kit to correct my lowering. You can def. see the negative camber really bad when the car is dropped , but not sure when i'm higher driving. Thanks for any help,
JDK

I 2nd that! If you are that worried about your camber . . don't drop it as far when you are driving.

Cruising all layed out is just a perk . . . no one said that it was going to be good for the ol' sneakers.

Good luck.

LOL, thanks alot for the help... so DRAGN do you wear through those tires of yours fairly quickly ?? or do you just raise it up to stock height ?

Oh yeah what's your air-setup if you don't mind sharing ?? I def. need to get new stuff mines too slow and poor parts too.

You dont need a camber kit unless you're cambered at drive height and you want to get rid of it. You can get the camber out of it when its laid out, but it depends how bad, as to what work will need to be done. I've had 1 where a camber kit did the job and then another civic that required a custom mounting setup. I wouldnt worry about it.

Do you lay completely out or are still a little above the ground? If you are, and wanna get rid of that, i'll let you know how.

Watch out, with air cylinders, they are faster then a bag.. so 3/8" valves and lines, at 145psi, will hope the rear at least. There is a blazer in town hopping with just that setup, cylinders in the rear and i know its heavier then a civic.

***Edit - goddamn, didnt notice this was THAT old of a thread... ah well..
