im tired of replacing tires that are chewed up on the inside. 2 flats in 1 year is enough. after putting my first set on after buying it a over a year ago, i got it aligned. well that didn't help as the camber was way off. after the alignment it was sitting at -3.0 in the front and -3.5 in the rear. toe was set and not an issue. and by the way i have training in advanced alignments from hunter, so i know all there is to know about alignments. what i don't know is these shocks. fast forward to now. had a flat this week, so i finally bought a low profile jack and took the rear wheels off. i didn't know that these shocks were adjustable until i researched them a couple days ago. the car sets way too low. so if im thinking right, i can adjust the ride height on these which in turn will increase my camber? they looked to be adjusted as low as they will go. and it also looks like they could of done it on their own due to all three collar nuts were loose. so i found they bag that had the adjuster tools and instructions, and proceeded to raise the rt rear. i turned the bottom of the coil over until there was about and inch and a half of threads showing in-between the bottom collar and top collars at the spring. i put the wheel on and lowered it and it raised it quite a bit. i can get 2 fingers almost between the tire and quarter panel. i like the slammed look, with the tires tucked in the fenders, but it was a pain in the ass to drive around here, and the tire issue had to be fixed. im sure it will go higher, but i would like to know how much positive camber i just gained, from just that much, i would like to be -2.0 to -1.0 and still be low, but not this low. it says on the ksport website, that they have a camber adjustment on the upper mount as well. i cant see with the shock on the car though, so im not 100% it does. im pretty sure it these http://ksportusa.com/products/coilovers/kontrol-pro/
any one else have these coil overs or something alike as far as adjusting them goes? i will post some pics later of the ride height, and the coil overs that i haven't touched yet, and the one i did adjust. i looked over every thread here and couldn't find the answers in looking for. and yes i know most here think they are crap shocks, but its what i have now, and what i must use for now.
