what is your objective? I have the second ones and have the Figs Mega arms and toe links in the garage still. Do you want this look? Where the top of the wheel tucks in?

I need to add negative camber in order to make some clearance. My plan was to just get the camber arms for now and then get an alignment to see where things stand before I spend the money on the figs toe links. I have looked through your threads for information so I am glad you responded.

So I installed my megan camber kit and just have one question. I reused the factory nut on the ball joint side closest to the wheel. Will I have any problems doing so? I remember reading it wasn't reusable but the nut that came with the megan arms had no washer or anything so I used the old one.

SPC makes a front camber kit. They are the ONLY ones who make a front kit as of yet. It will correct negative camber to positive if you need to.

I think you should be fine. Do they look different?

I didn't think it would be too big of a deal. Thanks.

do I need camber arms even if i dont want that tucked look? i just want to lower on megan ez coils (not too low) and not worry about inner tire wear.

or would springs be a better option since i dont want that slammed look?

Hello!
I am from Spain and i have a IS250, and I would like to leave as yours, because it is beautiful, but in my country there are no parts to customize as in the USA and i would like to know all the parts that are needed to assemble the IS250 so that you can leave as low as yours.
By now he led the 18" series but i want to put 19" or 20 ".

Thank you very much!
