This site shows factory camber settings http://www.oakos.com/wrx/specs.htm. It seems to me that -1 and 30 min (-1.5) is wrong. Does anyone know what the factory setting for the rear actually is, or are these #s correct? If these #s are correct I see why the WRX has a problem with understeer. Also from what Ive heard Bone 324 is correct about 1.6 being ok but you may not want that much in the rear depending on your driving style. Im still experimenting with my settings so I cant say what combo I think is best. Toe will eat your tires not camber as long as you dont get too crazy with it.

Most of the people here @ I club seem to be going with more in front than the rear (to help understeer) so my next allignment will be -1.5 front & -1 rear.

 

I had lowered my Integra 3.5" front and 4" rear and my camber was way out. You could actually tell just by looking at them. My tires wore out pretty quickly but partly because they had a real soft rubber compound. I would say they wore out about 25% faster because of the camber.

 

With a 4" drop and no camber adjustment Id say you got too crazy with it. You had to be over -3. It will be different since your getting Eibachs, they dont drop it near that much. Ask an allignment shop and they will tell you what is acceptable - camber.

 

Yeah, Thats why I decided on the Pro Kit .. It wasnt too fun having to slow down to 5mph to go over railroad tracks. Plus, the Integra even though it was a gsr was All Show and No Go so I had to slam it.

Also, someone told me that Low Profile Tires will make it more necessary to correct your camber than non LoPros. and it make sense to me cause theres less sidewall to flex and plant the whole footprint of the tire on the ground. Is this true?

 

Not sure but it makes sence. I would think tire pressure would also play a role but Im no pro. I have 02 rex with so3s which are low profile and very soft @ -1 and have not had any uneven wear in about 8k (4k of those miles I was @ -2). I have the tread checked every 3k.
