Default Alignment Specs after spring install
Just installed my swift springs and below are my results after alignment. Do you guys think I'll be ok with that negative camber or will I need an aftermarket kit to bring it more into spec?

You will be fine with these specs. For the street - your camber is fine - should not cause premature tire wear.

+1. Anything under 2.5 and nothing to worry about.

The camber looks fine. It's also not really as much camber as it is toe that causes premature wear.

Yeah that is fine. Toe kills tires and camber isn't too bad. Just better to take corners harder lol

A bit of toe in on rear doesn't hurt. It will help you get more traction for rears
