camber correction kit

[baxsom]

i think i need one
i am no means even close to an expert when it comes to suspension so i need someone to back up my reasoning here

my car is lowered with the eibach pro kit
and the rear tires lean slightly into the center of the car

if i have understood what i have read this means i need a camber correction kit
right?

does this pic help?

Actually your sig pic is more helpful. It is highly likely could benefit from some camber correction in the rear. Try this tread:

cool thanks for the info
so basically i need to go get the alignment checked find out how far away from 0 each one is and add the spacers necessary to fix it

cool

in the thread it mentioned just using longer bolts and washers
is that really as effective as getting the correction kit from eibach
definetly a lot cheaper

That's really all a rear camber kit is.

If you can find a shop that will measure the camber, adjust using your supplied parts, then complete the alignment, good for you. That would be ideal. My mechanic will do that, many won't.

If your shop is of the latter type, you will need to estimate your current camber, make an educated guess about the amount of correction, and put on the new bolts and spacers yourself. The down side to this approach is that if you get it wrong and more correction is needed, the shop may charge you more.
