Also keep in mind that not just your camber gets thrown off by lowering. You can't adjust your toe very much either (if at all) with the stock arm/bolts, and if your toe is off by much, you will eat tires up way more quickly than if you were running a lot of negative camber but with correct toe.

Thanks for the concern Jeff! Ya I was contemplating keeping them, but I cant really justify it because before I got them I was able to get my camber almost back to stock. Really I just got them because I was worried about camber eating up my tires. The extended toe bolts are still on my car and my toe is perfect right now. Plus I'm about 4 months away from my suspension upgrade so I figured I could recoup some of the money spent from these. If I ever need them again ill just look for some used ones lol.
