Eibach took my rear slightly out of spec, but nothing too crazy. I believe most with Eibach have the same.

I have the eibach drop for quite sometime now..I am on Stock 18s..and terrible tires..and seriously I have not had any problems yet. It even fixed the creaking issue that the Maximas are known for (in the rear).

19s..may be different...though?

I have Eibachs lowered on 18's and my camber I thought wasn't that bad until I ran through a set of tires after a year. I did some research and found out that the 350Z camber arms will correct the rear camber. So I ordered the camber arms off of Z1 Motorsports, they were around $190 shipped if I'm not mistaken. Got them installed last week and a fresh alignment and now everything is aligned perfectly in spec. I also ordered the front camber bolts and installed them as well. I would recommend doing the same if you don't want to run through tires. PM me if you have any direct questions.

Hope this helps.

Hmm..Maybe I am just lucky..I don't know. I haven't had any problems until recently - but thats because I am long due new tires (Which I have decided to get tomorrow/today in 4 hours..fml)

As an ex Honda guy you should know how they love their negitive camber set-ups for better handling, just throw good tire wear out the window!
I still have some negitive camber issues and slight inside tread wear even with the 350Z arms.
The car drives just fine and even handles tons better now.

Calm down tiger..... Reason why he said that was because this question was asked before a bunch of times, If you would of searched here on the forum NOT on google, you would of found the answer a bit faster rather thn making "another repeat" posting... So chill out, we are all here for the same reason....to shoot the ****,give each other ideas and help each other out.
Enjoy your stay.

I agree with MIA. We are all here to help each other out. I think the question was a great one and he was looking for some valuable information. No need to spark up a fight..only I get to do that around here!

I just got my eibach drop on 19's today... I do see the camber issue for the back... So it's the 350Z not the 370Z right? Also is it a problem in the front? How is the front taken care of?.... Are there any other camber kits from a different brand instead of going through the Z's?
