06 GS300 and DF210 Springs....Alignment??
Hey Guys,
I have a 06 GS300 RWD and I installed the factory 18" wheels and Tanabe DF210 springs. The wheels are really negatively cambered and I went to get it aligned today with a shocking discovery....There is no camber or caster adjustments!!! So my solutions are to either put the stock springs back on the car or get a camber kit. As far as I see there are not any kits available. Can anyone shed any light of hope for me before I put the stock springs back on the car?

There is no real way of fixing this unless you can find an alignment shop that will do what it takes to make the correction. In FL, we have Miami Chassis and they fixed my problem. Given they can't fix the camber issue but they managed to get the toe to the correct specs thus making even wear on the tires.
I believe they opened a hole on the rear lower control arm and adjusted it so that the toe could go in further. The fronts, they did something but I forgot what I was told. The print out they gave me showed that everything was on target after it was done.

Those df210's are way to harcore for any type of semi decent alignment. You went to low. Swith to another spring like H yech from tein. They are not going to give the stance of the df210, but you can get stock alignment specs or damn near it. I would try a couple of alignment shops. If that doesnt work, then change to a different spring. At least try to get them to dial out some of the toe in. that will eat a tire faster than bad camber
Just look around for a real alignment shop that will do what needs to be done in order to get the toe into correct specs. Its not that hard.
People get into accidents all the time and they bend the frame, etc... real body/alignment shops pull the frame or adjusts whatever needs to be done.
