a bit of a worry on the skunk2 camber kit tho. i was just about to order it next week. it seems like its the most available camber kit for the fd. i dont know if there are many other brands out there..
got any clue of what other types of kits are out there?

also, got some pics of the car with camber? i would like to see :D

btw, im running 235/35/r19 tyres on my car. scrubs and i dont think the tyre looks that thin at all. i think it looks fine, but ppl have seen my wheels and when i tell them they're 19s, they say "they look smaller. the tyres dont make them look like 19s" :confused: lol.

here's probly only side view pic i've got of my car. the lighting isnt that great to see the wheels, but it's all ive got for u. lol

i was also looking into getting some 225/35/r19 tyres. got quoted at $190 per tyre.

probs 15 or 20%..
not legal.

yes thats correct

lol yeah.. it's a 20% 3m tint. not legal. but after 3 or 4 months, i havnt had any problems with cops.
.k. and i got it done by the same guy on our FDs


anyway, ekdez, have u got any pics of the rear wheels with that camber kit? even tho u say it doesnt do anything, can u notice any difference at all? even visually? lol

so you need the camber kit to change the camber to what degrees? -1/2 or not even that much?

just a correction - it's actually the aspect ratio. so say you have 225/40, 40 is the aspect ratio and of course 225 is the width in mm. sidewall height = width x aspect ratio / 100. so for 225/40 = 225 x 40 / 100 = 90mm side wall height.

yeha i got 20% tints too.. no problems for about a year now.

havent got any pictures of just the rear.. well not yet.. ill grab some for you soon.

mmm.. i reckon if my rear wheel wasnt a 9" rim and it was more slammed i'd notice a difference..for now its too high and too wide LOL.. you cant fit a piece of paper between the tire and the rear guard.. thats how tight fit my tire and guard are.. but ti did help a little but i expected it to help SO much more..
