I think I have a 1" rear spacer on the bottom of my spring. I would like to take it out to make my car have less rake. My question is how much camber change will 1 in of lowering make? Thanks

Well my main reason for asking this is because of tire wear, I'll be buying some new tires with my christmas money and I dont want to have them wear improperly. Right now I dont care cus my Yoke A-008's are hard as a rock...
How much would be a good amount of camber for a street car, and ocasional autox? -1? -1.5? -.5? 3? I think I have 1.75 on the left and 3 degrees negetive on the right.. Dont know why... But that was in the dark with one hand.. Could be wrong.. Andrew |
