Hey everyone, So i've decided to finally go ahead and drop my GS which is already sittin on TSW Kyalami 20x8.5(245/35) and 20x10(275/30)... Now I want to go with a more aggressive drop so I was looking at the Tein S. Tech springs which drop it 1.8" in the front and 1.7" in the rear. Now as far as I know I thought that Camber kits are required to do the drop but all I can find is the kit for the rear... So what do I do??? Also is it necessary for me to purchase new shocks? And if so which shocks will contribute to better handling?? Somebody please help!!!!!

Camber kit is not necessary for you to be lowered. Camber is there to help correct negative camber so your inner tire does not wear out prematurely.

It's recommended that you get new shocks because you need something better that will handle the drop. OEM shocks will be compressed too much for it to do any good. Plus they're dampening rate will not match the Tein springs as well. There aren't too many aftermarket shocks for out cars.

coilovers are the answer.

As far as camber well we are just hosed.

So should I go ahead and purchase the rear camber kit that I found on ebay? And does anyone know of any shocks other than bilstein or kyb?

Ah, the same wheels I had awhile ago.. Heres a photo of my car with the TSWs.. Lowered on Daizen springs and L-tuned shocks.



I didn't have tire wear problems in the front, but definately in the rear.. I like the look when the wheel cambers in alittle so it never bothered me.

i think many members are on the following:
coilovers, or if on s/s combo using either oem, kyb, or bilstein shocks. GL!
