Toe? Camber? Lowering an AWD is250
Ive been seeing some bad pictures of tire wear from members who have lowered their vehicles.
Im planning on lowering on bc coils, about 2 inches .. I have an awd 250...
Im worried about this "toe " i keep reading about everywhere (yes I know what toe is, but didn't realize it was such a big deal), but I can only find REAR toe arms
(Not even for awd).. What about the front?!
i understand camber isnt a big deal, but to save me in the long run, and offer me the peace of mind if I decide to lower even more, what kit is recommended for front and rear (awd)?
Running 18x8.5 225/40/18 all around
Thanks in advance!

1. 2" drop won't alter your alignment too much
2. control arms are the same awd or rwd
3. factory toe is adjustable, you don't need it unless factory is seized
4. factory camber is not adjustable, if you're **** about it you need minimum camber arms (but your camber may change slightly when adjusting toe)
get your front toe to 0 and rear to 0.10 (will spread to 0 upon accelerating) once you do an alignment
minimal braking while turning and you will have less toe wear

Thanks for the reply! Well I'm actually thinking of lowering 3" now if that makes a difference.
So I should only worry about a camber kit?
I always thought toe was a big concern for people lowering... thats why I was considering picking a toe "kit" over a camber kit
