Question Need help about camber kits when lowering my car

I am going to be replacing the struts and springs on my 2000 2.5 RS with KYB AGXs and (hopefully if I can find a good price) Eibach ProKit springs (1” in the front and 1.2” in the rear).

I was wondering with that particular setup, will I need to purchase camber kits for my front and rear wheels? If so, should I get ones that adjust +/- 1.0 degrees, +/- 1.75 degrees, or +/- 2.0 degrees?

I have found a few out there online but I don’t know which are good or bad so some advice would be greatly appreciated, thanks-

Eibach Fast Cam Bolt
+/- 1.0 degree


Sprint:
+/- 1.75 degrees


Eibach:
+/- 1.75 degrees


Ignalls Fast Cam Bolt
+/- 2.0 degrees


OBX:
+/- 3 degrees


Thanks!

You should be okay up front with the stock camber bolt. But the rear has no adjustment so adding rear camber bolts is a good idea. The car already has some negative rear camber so a bolt that let's you get another +/- 1 deg should suffice.

That is of course assuming you're using the setup on the street. If you intend to AutoX the car you may want more negative camber on all four corners and then I would suggest a bolt that let's you get 1.5 to 2 deg.

Thanks. I actually found 4 camber bolts for $20 by OBX I think it was, so I bought them. I will probably just put all 4 on if they aren't that hard. I am having a friend of mine help me with the suspension because I've never installed suspension before and he has. He hasn't done camber bolts so I'm hoping it's not too difficult.

Thanks for the reply

They're just replacement bolts so it shouldn't be a problem.
