Arrow Eibach Pro-kit for G37S Coupe. Poll to see how many needed camber kits.

Did you need to buy a camber kit for your vehicle after the Eibach Pro-kit drop (was your alignment within factory specs)?

This is a poll to see how many people did/did not get away from having to buy camber kits to be within factory alignment specs.

You only "need" them if you do not want to deal with premature tire wear. Mine did not get back within factory spec.

I didn't get camber kits. But I did get an alignment after. slightly off from factory specs. nothing major.

One yr. later and about 12K miles and my tires seem to be holding up.

an alignment after getting the Eibach PK put on/letting it settle is a NECESSITY. however, the only thing you will deal with when not getting a camber kit is the tires possibly wearing out prematurely.

I DO NOT have a camber kit and after the alignment my rear tires were in factory specs, my front were out of camber ~1.2 degrees. I've had the PK for over 12,000 miles and there is zero premature wear.

Don't know about you guys but I not only needed it in the rear but also in the front as well. Without it I'm losing about 5,000 miles on my tires.

I am a spirited driver. I believe that spacers account for alignment issues to. Just a note that I think without a drop the stock tires do wear a tad uneven in the rear.

PS: My alignment has been done 3 times as well.
