did you get a printout from the alignment shop? it should show your camber, meaning however many degrees the wheels are "tilting" inward. Usually you're fine w/ less than 1 degree. Nothin you can do unless you get a camber kit, correct me if im wrong anyone.

She needs to ask the coupe owners because they might know more than we do. It might also have to do with her rims.

Nah my rims are the stock wheels, and I asked the dealership and they said just an alignment. I didn't ask them for that sheet, but maybe next time I will. I have been looking for a camber kit and can't find one. any ideas on where I can get one?

WELCOME!It does create a slight neg camber... but nothing to worry about.. ive had summer tires on for many miles after my eibachs (and on 20" wheels) and it doesnt even create uneven tire wear.

A camber kit shouldnt be REQUIRED unless somethings wrong, just consider it your new "gangster lean"
