they look even better in real life than on pictures, just awsome, will put them in tomorrow.

have this question, what should the settings be on the front camber plates? and when i go to do my alignment should they mess with the camber settings or just the wheels? any other info would be appreciated, thanx.

oh, and what should they be set to to be as close to stock as possible to get the most even tire wear?

and how do i tell that they are set to only .5 inch drop, or 1 inch drop

 

Set at 0 then go get alignment.

 

my alignment guys just adjusted everything back to stock with my plates. they saw them and were like, well this will be easy.

 

and how do i tell that they are set to only .5 inch drop, or 1 inch drop

 

theyre not really a way to measure an inch from stock unless u measued b4 the dropa nd then after adjusting the jics acordingly. i use a yardstick to measure my height, and make sure things are even.i measure formt he ground to the highest point of the wheel well. right now im 24 inches in fornt and about 24.25 in the back. thats much lower than ur looking for, id say urs shoudl be about 26 all around for a 1-1.5inch drop.

 

When I installed my D2's I set the camber as close as I could by eye till I could drive to the shop. I got it really close so it did not need much adjusting.

 

what about the camber angle, what does a zero setting look like?

 

Look at your tires now...

From the factory your camber setting is zero. I just went to a shop and had them set it back to zero.

I had some idiot tell me that you cannot reset it to zero because it was a new suspension...I would eat right through my tires... "I have sunk $10k into my CONTOUR, trust me I know what I am talking about" (that was a direct quote)

So I naturally ignored him and told them to set to zero like the factory specs and guess what... after eight months, my tires are perfect.

 

thats f'n crazy, i hate when u go somewhere n they are complete f'n idiots, and have no clue what they are talking about, just want to make money.

 

hey where did u get your A1's ...i emailed JIC awhile back and they told me they were out of stock and stopped making them...

 

i know jic has them right now, but i ordered through custom maxima, i know the group deals forun has them too.

 

get them and then you can die happy! (not now, like when it's ur time) theyre that great imo!
