Camber question

hi,

well i wanted to get my car set at -1.5 camber in the front to clear my new fenders but the shop said they only could get it to -1.1. car has stock suspension and eibach springs. would changing to coilovers allow it to go farther?

Shims are not for the FD its for more older cars, which are just sheets of metal that help to adjust camber and caster like that on trucks. Give me some time I can can possibly get you an idea of some after market parts that will help you get your needed camber. Like a camber bolt kit



made by

Manufacturer: ACDELCO US
Part Number: 45K18048

Might help with a video too

If you want camber bolt kits I'd highly recommend stempf. If for no other reason than they have excellent customer service.
