Is a camber kit required to do an alignment

steve216 · 10-30-2018, 01:50 AM

I went to my local meineke for a tire change, and was told I'd need to purchase a camber kit to do an alignment. Is this correct? I am on a completely stock suspension car. Changed summer tires for winter.

No, you don’t need anything. Don’t go back.

Now... what tires did these idiots put on your car??

What did the scammer say as to why you needed one?

I just installed V3 coil over , will buy the camber kit for the rear, just wonder do I have to get the front camber arm as well,. How far off will be if I just lower the front about 1"

the stock front offers no adjustment, so I'd suggest getting camber arms if you're going to lower the car much
