I have a civic with eibach springs. I just put Si rims on the car and i was wondering since my car is low, would i really need a camber kit? I just took my car to firestone to get it balanced and aligned. Would i still need a camber kit? I know a friend with a lowered civic blew his tire once a month but he had 17s with out a camber kit. I had regular steelies on my lowered civic and didnt have a problem *actually i was had the same tires for like 4 years and there were steel wires coming out of the front two tires*
some feedback would be appreciated. If i do buy a camber kit, would it be hard to install? Thanks

You can have someone dial in your camber without a camber kit. I had it done on my Civic about a year ago. Once I got the ride height where I wanted it, I had an alignment done, and the camber set. No more unusual tire wear after that. Camber kits are a waste of money IMO unless you are constantly adjusting the ride height of your car.

Where can you go to have your camber dialed in. I just have eibach springs, so no more adjusting. Yea i really dont feel like buyin a camber kit if i can just get this done. Thanks for the input
And I would just say fuck it, but the car is going to go to my fiance, and i dont want her having a fuckked up car. And the tires pop and all hell brakes lose

camber kits are for pussys
lol
If you only have lowering springs on si's, you should NOT have a problem with tires blowing out!! The eibachs dropped you what, 3 inches? I had my car about 3 inches off the ground, on 17s-- that's an issue
You should be FINE, seriously
