Agreed, just changed out my tires which had a good 10k left on the tread but was wasted on the edge. I'm bumping this back up. Any one install these or another camber adjustable kit yet?

Dropped on Eibach Prokit
Im bumping this too. Im about to invest in some BC Racing coilovers and didnt even know that dropping the car will neg camber the wheels. I ALSO dont want to have to replace expensive freakin tires every 5-10k miles. But i wont be taking this car on the track. I just want to save money. (10' IS250 btw)

unfortunately, the 2IS rear does not have camber adjustment...that's why everyone is looking for the camber kits.

I think most ppl feel the same way as you...smart modding will help the wallet.

i got the rear megan camber kit installed and the camber in my rear tires are within factory specs after an alignment. worked out well for me. contact Chris at TeamSNS to get the rear camber kit. Customer service is great and he is very professional.

I have an AWD IS250 and just ordered the kit as I'm wearing thin on the inside of my tires. This kit should allow me to get the rear aligned which is the issue since the front can be adjusted enough without the need for an aftermarket kit.

i got this, as i was told by the seller, and a person on here that has it, that its the only thing needed to add some more negative camber(up to 3 degrees) and cave your wheels in like this // \\

So is it true that the kit produces lots of cabin noise?

It seems many ppl are getting this kit to get more camber // \\.. but what I am really looking for is to min tire wear || ||, and so that my car will actually not lose traction when I acclerate from a complete stop..

More or less camber will wear tires over time. Theres 2 basics reasons for tire wear, camber and toe. Toe in the rear can be adjusted but camber cannot. So if your car is lowered you should purchase the rear camber kit to put it back to factory specs. Toe will be ok since it can be adjusted with the factory part.
The camber kit will allow you to get more or less camber.

Don't worry about cabin noise if any would be minimal.
