Do I really need a camber kit??

[DSMking90]

I just ordered my Megan racing springs and was told i would need a camber kit. If I don't buy it would anything really happen? Also, anyone have personal experience with these megan springs?

Yes you will need a camber kit! No way around it.

I dont know how much the rear kit for 2g's are but 1g you can get the bolts for the front at oreillys for like $15 and the DME kit for $52. Its just the nature of the beast when you put lowering springs on a car.

Also you better have some good shocks too with your bumpstops cut down.

Yes I lowered my old 98 GST 1.2" and the inside of my tires were gone and still had 75% tread on the outside so save some money (on tires) by buying the camber kit and taking it to an alignment shop afterward and have a 4 wheel alignment done

Damb, I might just have to hold off on the install since i have terrible shocks and knowing im going to need the camber kit. Thanks

Yes as they said the camber kit is essential. I lowered my car and even with a camber kit in the front and rear it was not fun to get the suspension 'dialed-in' on the alignment machine.

**You need the camber kit becuase in stock form, mitsubishi didnt allow for ajustability of the suspension caster and camber settings.

It will pay for itself in the form of the amount you will save not shredding the inside of you tires...

^--This would have been nice to know a couple months back, I waited like 2 wks for mine to come in and they cost over $50.

yes you do if u dont want to thrash the inside of every set of tires you want extremly fast

How much of a window do I have before the tires get really bad without the camber kit? Cause if i get these springs it might be another while longer till' i can get the camber kit.
