Hi, I know this is an old post, tried to send you a pm but, your box is full.

I saw you have a very similar set-up as to what I'll be running. I've got a 2010 w/ sport pkg.

I'm going with the 20mm H&R for all 4 corners & Swift spec-r springs…along w/ the FI CBE, GTM oil cooler, Stillen G3. and UpRev tune

All work is being @ SpecialtyZ here in soCal.

I see you're not using any camber kit at all. That's what I'm debating…Do I need the SPC combo kit or not?

This is my daily driver, probably not gonna track her but, maybe. I do some spirited driving in the twists though.

I'd love to get your thoughts and what your experience has been w/o the camber kits.

Thanks in advance.

I don't have a camber kit...almost stock specs after alignment. The camber looks pretty much stock too. I can't comment on tire wear. It's only been about 500 miles since the install & about 200 since alignment.
I kinda wish I would have done 20mm's in the front like you are.

Thanks for the reply. I'm really on the fence with this.

Default Recent model year Sport wheels and spacers

I've been following a bunch of the Swift springs and spacer threads.
Maybe some of the people with the newer Sport wheels (edit.....Ray's 19") could post up some pics of their 370s with the info of the size of spacers they've gone with. There is one huge thread (edit.....which I can no longer locate) and I've been through it all but it's quite old, and hence, not too many pics of recent Sport wheels with the Swifts and spacers.

Thanks
