There are a lot of people on here running the Megan stuff, it works, they only have the rear arms though. BUT we do carry the new SPC stuff for the front, so we can get you a complete front and rear camber solution.

I have the Megan LP coilovers and Megan rear camber arms. You can correct camber in the rear with the Megan camber kit. It depends on how low you are and your offsets/width of tires.

I'm actually going to order the Megan racing lowering springs. Wheels offset is 20x9.5 in the front and 20x10 in the rear the tire is a 285/25/20. And front is 235/30/20. So I'm hoping the rear camber kit will work for me.

What's the offset?
And how much is the camber kit?

First of all the sizes you posted are the wheel size and widths, not offsets. I'm not sure on the drop of the Megan springs, but if you don't go too low you may not have issues with the wheel making contact with the rear quarter panel. I do think the 285's may be a bit wide. You may need to roll or dhave your rear quarter panel inner lip to avoid contact. The 9.5's up front with the 235 may be an issue because the rim is a bit wide and the tire also. I see some contact potentially being made with the liner for sure and maybe the bumper tab.

It's usually stamped on the back side of the wheel.

Ok I'll check them out it I think it might be on spoke now that I think about it. But I'll find out and hopefully you can tell me if I'll need my fenders rolled.

When I had 275's in the rear I had mine rolled. I think you'll have to do the same. Are the wheels and tires on the car now?

No I have the stock wheels on right now. Was it hard for you roll them or did you have a body shop do it?

Hey guys I'm dropped on tein s tech on my rwd is250. I have half to no finger gap all around. I was told to get a camber kit in the back which is where it rubs a lot! I was thinking on Megan but what would I need? I see they sell the toe and arm. I'm confused, can someone link me to what I would need. I'm running on 18x8.5 front and 18x10 rear. Thanks guys!
