Any harm running negative camber long term ?
Long short story . Just get approved to buy a daily ( 16 nissan sentra) so i have the chance to keep my Z at home for weekend drive
Will install Tein lowering spring this week( consider another one too if drop not like expected). Just want to know that beside uneven tire wear, will be any more harm/long term damage to the car structure,suspension, ....? I can afford to change new tire no problem.but messing with suspension is not good feeling for me Thanks.I will most likely do ~ just 50miles per week |
No problem but why not swift springs

Don't lower the car without camber arms and toe bolts.
How is it that messing with suspension is not good feeling for you but you're putting on lowering springs? Do it right or not at all. |
Not to mention, camber arms and toe bolts are far cheaper than a new set of tires. There's literally no intelligent reason to do this any other way than the correct way.

As long as you don't run stretched tires...
I will have my SPL adjustable arms up for sale shortly. Again: do it right the first time. You'll be unbolting have that **** anyway to get the springs on the struts. |
Per his recent threads, OP just honestly doesn't know much about suspensions, and he actually runs properly sized rubbers on his rims. I think he's just trying to get rid of the wheel gap with the springs.

how much camber we talking? I daily my G35 with -3 camber and there visually ZERO tire wear after a year of driving. If you have proper suspension hardware installed -1 to something like -4 wont cause damage.

it's usually bad toe settings that causes the worst tire wear. And of course when you change your camber you change your toe...
with that being said...it's not going to cause any long term damage to the car if he just gets the springs for now (imo) It's just the uneven tire wear. But yes, what everybody else said...might as well correct your camber and toe with your drop if you want to do it right. |
This was posted in a new thread earlier today. Seems fairly relevant.

^^ Excellent video! Cleared up some suspension questions of my own.

The only harm is hurting people's feelings -- is what a stanced guy would say! In all seriousness I run -2 w/o any issues. I have SPL camber arms and stock front control arms. Just keep that toe in check.
