I doubt it too. It is only DD. And it's just lowering springs. Not coils and it is not like slammed or flush or anything.

My car is lowered on Swift springs. The front doesnt have factory camber adjustment, however the camber isnt terrible with the Swift springs. I have rear camber arms and no toe bolts. I was able to get my toe in spec, but my rear camber had to be a little more negative than spec to get the toe in spec. I dont particularly drive my car hard, but I have driven 20k miles on my car like this. My tires are near the end of their life, but I got some good life out of them.

Toe is the biggest killer of tires. Camber will cause them to wear slowly, but if your toe is off "scrubbing" occurs which is when a tire rotates slightly off center. When your car is going straight but your wheels are angled a little to the left or right (toe) thats when you will get some excessive tire wear.

SPC camber arms and toe bolts will be perfect for a DD.

Yeah so just the rear camber plus toe bolts should be fine from what most people are telling me.

So is it 100% confirmed if you lower the Z on eibach springs you'll mead the chamber kit. It is possible just to have it aligned at the shop and be in spec
