Sorry for not searching but in a quick jam here....do they have camber kits for our cars? I checked a while ago and there wasnt anything available, but I'm going through tires pretty quickly and I'm about to drop another 800 for two fronts.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks.

if youre in a jam i would think it would be quicker to search/research,
rather than post up a question and wait for someone to respond.

anyways, im sure you can find a kit. if not here, in japan.
if not in japan, you can have a shop build it just for you

Figs Engineering, Colorado. Whether or not they ever get it off the ground is another story.

I've been trying to get Figs to make LS430 parts for 3 years...always on the back burner with an update once a year it seems like.

Car has been out for over 6 years now....but demand must not be there, but maybe down the road. as people stated, might be better to just get those cheap azz tires once a year then pay all that money for camber kits lol...but, i have been running my continental dws tires for almost 2 years now on both my lowered 460 and semi lowered 600 with very good wear being observed..i know others ride much lower than me though

I know the fabricator I was working with wanted at least an order of 10 before moving forward. Not sure what FIGS personal stance is on production, but i'm not even sure if we can get that many people here to move forward on such a project.

Tough sell since it seems like having people being interested in such a product is completely separate from having people put money where their mouth is.

It all depends on how much camber you need. You might be able to just get the minimum amount of camber with being able to correct the toe with the stock arm.

^ agreed. if you don't need all that camber with non-aggressive wheels, that can actually be achieved with manipulation of the oem parts.

I haven't heard any updates as of yet. Seems like the money is in IS parts. I hope it happens eventually, but I might just have to save for the Japanese parts. I was really looking forward to this.
