what you means by changes in kinematics ?
without going back to functional dynamics with compensation arms?
or what arms ?

For the camber associated with lowering, there are solutions to add positive camber, to make the wheels vertical, like oem for extrem street use.

For example, I'm thinking of lowering between -36mm and lower... -50mm, with original tires 245/275. approaching a camber of -1.8° to -2° (with ou add positive camber) or more...-2.4. there are solutions to add positive camber. not trackday. 12k or less rear. 14k front. with add positive camber, i will like to obtain 1.2° front, 1.6° rear.

Does your knowledge of the maximum lowering impacting kenimatics permeit this to be resolved with more add positive camber ?

what would you estimate as the maximum lowering to save the kinematics?

with all alignment problem solved, to original alignment, will the kinematics no longer be functional in dynamics?
or.
with or without to add positive camber, what is the maximum lowering limited by functional in dynamics ?

Thanks
Best regards
Xavier
is this a street car or a track car?
