Hey guys! A little about my situation now - I'm on ebachi springs with 20x10 front and 20x10.5 rear niche veronas. I rolled and flared my rear fenders, but I still scrap my rear wheels against my fenders when I'm going fast and I hit little dips in the road and on steeper inclines/declines. On the bright side, my front bumper has never really scraped at all.
So I'm looking at two options:
Air ride
Or
Camber kit
I'm leaning more towards just getting a camber kit for my back wheels to eliminate the damn rubbing but I honestly have noooo idea what to buy. If someone could send me a link to what I need, it'd be super appreciated!
Air ride: I really want to get an idea of what everyone is paying I've seen kits priced from 2k-5k. What is even the difference between the two? Which ones would y'all personally purchase? Links would be helpful!
Car's looking good, those wheels look great on that color G.
Surprised you're that low on just an Eibach drop, and being that low you really should consider the F&R camber kits. Looks like you're running an extra low series sidewall too, what tire specs are you running?
Have you had it aligned, and if so do you have your spec sheet?
As far as running extra camber in back, you can get by w/ the SPC kit, this also includes (or should include) the rear toe bolt set, you will need to elongate the toe slot w/ a dremel tool. This will allow you to run extra camber but still keep your toe in spec which is critical to proper tread wear. Here's a link on the toe bolt install https://www.myg37.com/forums/brakes-...-template.html
My wheels are 20x10 with 245/30/20 tires in the front and 20x10.5 with 275/30/20 in the rear. I have had it aligned but i have no idea what it is at, I leave that up to the pros haha.
I honestly don't know what any of that is, could you shoot me a link to a camber kit? Also, is there cheap kits and expensive kits (like everything else)? And what would the difference be?
Also how the hell are you dropped that low on Eibachs? Something doesn't seem right bc I'm I'm dropped on the Eibach Pro Kit and I've seen many others any none have looked that low. I'm fairly jealous of you right now lol If I was able to get my drop just another inch or so lower and have it sitting like yours I'd save so much money contemplating on going the coilover route.

Haha whoooopssss, theyre not eibachs. They're Tein s-tech springs. I was like wtf are these guys talking about.. then i walked out to my garage and saw the tein box!

Ah now that makes more sense. You will need front and rear camber kit.
How do you like the ride on the Tien S springs? I've heard both good and bad reviews about ride quality and it has me curious. I love the ride of my eibachs but after seeing your drop think I should've went for them instead when I had the chance lol

Get the SPC kit. use the link kenny gave you.
Why would i need front camber? The tires are showing zero sign of uneven wear, and I'm not scraping. Also why are they so expensive? Theres got to be a cheaper brand lol.

They're great, damn near stock feel... other than the constant, and ridiculous noise of my back tires scraping my fender walls

Anything lower than eibachs almost always needs front and rear camber kits. The G has very little tolerance for camber adjustment when lowered.
As far as a cheaper brand you may try kinetix. I think the front ars are about $50 cheaper.
Nobody NEEDS a camber kit at all...it all depends on what the drivers aim to get out of their vehicle.
If your goal is more tire longevity over performance, obviously having the least amount of neg camber will be your aim in which the camber kit will solve your problem.
OP, unless your toe is out of whack in front you can get away with only getting the rear kit.
Would the front be nice to have? Absolutely

I agree on not needing a front camber kit. I had Tein S.Tech springs too and only got a camber kit and toe bolts for the rear. The front gave me good enough life on tires that I never sprung for one.
What's your offset in the rear, +25? Did you trim your rear bumper bracket? I don't think I saw that anywhere. If you did already, get 255/35/20 tires and your rubbing will disappear. I'm running 20x10.5 +20 offset in the rear with 255/35 tires and stock spec camber with rubbing on big dips only. Once I cut out the bracket it will be gone completely.

My offset is +30mm, and yea i shaved the rear brackets... It was taking chunks out of my tires lol. Front camber is completely unnecessary imo. Plus i dont like the look of camber anyway, so if i can save money with out any damage to my car, I'm bout it. Where'd you get your camber kit and tow bolt? Im hurting after buying an OEM IPL bumper lol.
Lol, if you don't like the look of camber than having a camber kit will allow you to run less camber (or more if you "like" camber). I'd go w/ the full kit, but the front is at least fully adjustable for toe so you will tend to run better in front than rear on OEM parts.
Stay far away from those Kinetix camber parts, there's been more than a couple broken welds and even worse, the money saved there isn't worth your safety.
If cost is a concern get the SPC bolts and use one set for your camber arm bolts and one set for your toe bolts, this will get you in spec for $50 if you dremel the slots yourself.
