Maybe. It depends on what my better half says. I'm leaving town Saturday so it may be tough to work in.


Sounds like it'll be a busy weekend Have a few (literally, few) pics of Sunday's meet. In my albums if anyone would like to check them out.
BTW, what was the meet Sunday. I know there's one this coming Sunday at Shawnee Mission Park.

Well if you can spare a few hours without getting in trouble with the Mrs. I'll be there.

the event we attended was the "Annual Kansas City Car Meet and 435 Loop Cruise v. 2013 ". It was also at the Shawnee Mission Park.

So, got my wheel alignment done today and here are the specs. Keep in mind that im lowered on swifts as well. Im not to worried about the fronts being off in camber, but that left rear is pretty far out and wondering if i should consider getting a rear camber kit. What do you guys think? The toe is good which outta the two camber/toe i think toe being outta whack wears your tires more right? Anyways i was going to post this in the thread made for it, but would like the local community opinion as well.

Attached is the before and after. The before is just off since i had the car lowered a month or two ago and never got an alignment since i was waiting on my wheels.

It's not all that bad. Without looking at mine, I think you are quite a bit better. The Z has such a negative camber spec anyway that a half of a degree isn't going to matter much.

I've thrown around the idea of camber kits, but mine have worn pretty well. I've got ~8k miles on them and they are actually wearing pretty even.

Does this mean you have pics with your wheels on??!

Anybody see themselves here from Sunday?
Sorry. I couldn't get link to post.
Never mind.
Return to your normal activities.
Move along. There's nothing to see here.


As an explanation. I found a video on Facebook about last Sunday's event but I couldn't get the link to work.
