Possible fix to camber problems?
Does anyone know if H&R Triple C Camber adjustment bolts fix the camber issues on the 3GS? Link below:

I have not checked to see if there is any application for the 3GS. If there isn't, I can't see why it can't be made for the 3GS (assuming these bolts work). Thoughts?

my car is dropped relatively low. It sits flush and I have had no problem with alignment at all and I am rolling on falkenfk452 with 10k miles on them. I dont see the need but hey who knows what will happen in the next 5k miles

Where do you see a 3GS application? All I see is this:

No, I didn't say there was a 3GS application. I was just wondering whether it would be easy (or difficult) to adapt this same application for the 3GS. Since I don't know the technical aspects of the GS suspension, I was throwing this out there for you guys to deliberate whether this can be done or not. If it's just special bolts, it can't be that difficult to make them for the 3GS? All we need to do is contact H&R and ask them if they would make an application for us.

So you are saying that after your drop and wheel alignment, that your alignment is still within factory specs? I was under the assumption that the alignment goes out of wack if you lower the 3GS (what you have or lower).

Yeah, but I bet your rear camber is less than -2.0 degrees. Your car should corner well. The out of spec negative camber will definitely cause uneven tire wear unless you have a custom alignment performed on the toe and caster to compensate.
