Hey guys I'm in the process of lowering my 2011 G37x soon and had a few questions. I'm looking into installing a set of Eibach pros and realized I'll probably need to install a camber kit so I don't kill my tires. My question is: what is the difference between all the different camber kits? I was looking at Eibach's website and they have 3 different Pro Alignment Kits, one camber bolt kit and two camber arm kits. The prices range anywhere between $62 to almost $500 too. I'm wondering what do I absolutely need in order to have OEM specs. Is the $500 kit necessary? Or could I get away with the $200-$300 kit? I don't plan on taking my car to the track, just want to remove the unsightly wheel gap.

I also see alot of you guys running the SPC camber kit, but even with them I've seen a couple different kits.

Sorry for the long post but any help would be appreciated. Thanks guys.

 

no need to get a pro alignment kit if your gonna take it to a shop to get aligned (which i recommend). I have SPC front camber arms and they are very easy to use to get into spec. I have stock rears camber kit since i was to lazy to instal the rear SPC kit. My rear camber is now -1.8 and my front is -.75.

there is a different in the rear spc kits i believe, but i dont know much about it. my front arms were 2XX for the pair i believe. i believe the Eibach and the SPC kit are the EXACT same for the front arms.

 

Thanks for the reply Steveo. So do you think I could get away with just the front arms or do you think I need a complete kit with both front and rear like this one:

SPC Front and Rear Combo INFINITI G37 2008 - 2011 72260 + 72130

 

yep, go w/ the SPC kit. Its 100% the same exact and actual Eibach kit(has the label right on it).

ALso, the spc kit it revised as well. Very straight forward install. etc! Done, GO SPC!!

 

camber kit with eibachs? i dunno im pretty sure stock is 1.2 front and 1.8 back. eibachs dont make a huge diff to spend money on F&R camber kits do they?

 

If I didn't need the camber kit it'd be awesome as I could save a few hundred bucks. But through my research I thought a camber kit would be advised for as little as an 1 inch drop?

 

I dropped with tanabe coilovers, but I don't know exactly how much I am lowered. I measure about 26.75-27" from the middle of the fender to the ground, and I haven't used camber kits. I got my alignment back into spec pretty much, but a camber kit may be in the future if I wanna go lower.

 

its just nice to have a camber kit in case u decide to switch out those springs for coilovers and drop more

 

Just roll without them, eibachs don't need kits since the drop is so mild, you can just flip the tires

 

Flip the tires as in dismount then remount the other way? Damn unidirectionals!!!

 

Tires are cheap . I say no camber kit

 

wtf? I don't know what kind of CHEAP tires you run, but I'd rather spend $200- for a rear spc kit, save the headaches of uneven tirewear and be safe.

 

Cheap tires... year right, but he's going to drop on Eibachs... such a mild drop that it's easy to bring back to spec (or close to) with a simple alignment.

My specs after alignment on Eibachs:
LF: -1.0
RF: -0.8
LR: -1.6
RR: -1.5

I too considered a camber kit, but found it was not necessary and liked the idea of saving $500 on the SPC kit... Bought me a AIT front bumper instead

 

my 09 X Coupe is lowered on Eibachs, no camber kit. my tires are all fine after 13k miles including one long haul of 1500 miles round trip

 

you wont need rears, im lowered just enough to eliminate the wheel gap, i have front camber arms and nothing in the rear.

My front is -0.75 and back is -1.8
