McNasty Something is wrong with your pic posting. None have been viewable.

i would think the effects on camber are minimal between 20 and 15mm?

5mm won't make a different but imagine 15-20mm from stock.

Im interested in those that switched to spacers from stock, how was your camber after. I know with just swifts, some can get away within oem camber, but with spacers, will that push the need for camber arms?

I have Swift/Koni/15mm spacer setup in the rear. When I did the springs,the stock camber arm did not have enough adjustment. In went the SPC arms and they do the trick.

After a period of time the spring will settle thus lower tbe height thus more -ve camber.
Regarding the spacers, imagine the rotor/hub are not facing out at 0 degree, about 1.5-2.0 degree facing upward. When extending the trackwidth with spacers, the wheel is not just extending outward horizontally but upward along the axis of the camber, I hope you understanding what I am talking.
When this happen, I am wondering is there any affect on the camber.

I hope some guru in here can chip in.

I haven't heard of camber issues from the addition of spacers. If there are...people need to chime in because it's just a matter of time before I go 15/20.

happytheman · 03-27-2012, 07:56 PM

I just was about to send out a distress signal Onzedge!

Hold on now, you've left a question unanswered! You're not doing your diplomatic duty!

What's the effect on camber from a 15/20 spacer AND NOTHING ELSE?

Ha. I did spacers first (by themselves) and was in-spec in the rear.
