Okay so clublexus has influenced me to get coilovers as well, and im don't know too much about them as this is the first time im ever buying them, my budget is kinda low, so i was looking at the megan ez coilovers, and I wanted to know do i have to buy anything else for the coilovers to work with the car? like do i have to buy camber arms? or toe links? thanks sorry im such a noob

 

Have to buy...no; but if you lower the car too much, you'll run excessive camber causing pre-mature inner tire wear. To help combat alignment issues, please budget for a 4-wheel alignment after the coilover install.

 

okay with that being said, im also getting a new set of wheels and the rears are gonna be 19x10 does that mean i have to get camber arms? and thanx for the info

 

If he needs to adjust his camber, he'll need a camber kit, too.

 

It all depends how much of a drop you go when the install of coilovers is done... for example im lowered on road magnet springs not coilovers and i needed the spc front camber kit to adjust the negative camber from the wearing on my front tires...

im running -2 in the rear and front and im on 20x8.5 front and 20x10 rear

 

i don't get why people automatically jump to the conclusion that there is a need aftermarket camber adjustment solutions whenever ride height is altered. factory alignment specs for the 2is is aggressive to begin with, and there have been many cases of 2is owners experiencing rapid inner tire wear - common with camber issues - at stock height. you really don't think 2is owners w/ stock suspension components need camber kits, do you?

according to lobuxracer, the best you can do is dial toe to "zero" while your 2is is on the rack. that, and flipping your tires on a regular interval to get even wear across the treadwidth will help combat camber wear.

unless you're running low, low offsets on those 19x10 wheels and running stretched tires and still need that extra amount of tire-fender clearance, you won't need aftermarket camber adjustment solutions.

 

^Thank you!

Might I add I'm dropped 2.5" on BCRs and have experienced ZERO ill effects of the additional negative camber on my BFG tires at 1.8 degrees.

 

guess i'll be getting my Toe checked again since you guys are the experts
