I got the Eibach Camber and Toe Bolt package, and it did the job precisely.

If I am not mistaken, the Eibach kit is actually made by SPC.

Wow, these springs sound great. I've never done anything but coilivers, but this sounds like a great deal

If I go with a different wheel/tire setup, I'll pick up some camber arms... I still might do it anyways just because.

I was ready to pay to have them installed...but after reading the DIY...I gave it a shot myself and it wasn't too difficult. As long as you rent a spring compressor...you should be able to install it yourself.

I by no means consider myself handy around cars...but this wasn't too bad. I say give it a go!
