#1: Front camber with coilovers? Author: eddicus, Location: LondonPosted: Thu Jul 14, 2011 6:53 am ---- I've heard that you can achieve front negative camber with adjustable top mounts, never seen them anywhere though....
Can't I just adjust camber on the coilovers themselves?

#3: Re: Front camber with coilovers? Author: Kersh, Location: Bridgnorth, Nr WolverhamptonPosted: Thu Jul 14, 2011 6:55 am ---- you can do it like me and just let your top mounts collapse i have great camber!
#4: Re: Front camber with coilovers? Author: Seabook, Posted: Thu Jul 14, 2011 7:05 am ---- if the car is lower you will have negative camber anyway.
there is a few taiwan company will do 206 camber and caster adjustable top mount.
tein and ast do camber adjustable top mount.
PS do -2 degree front pivot.
most adjustable top mount will give you no more than -3 degree camber. if you want eurolook they are not for you.

I just want my wheels in the arches, I have 16" Nimrods and they look to be too wide for when I slam the car, I don't wanna buy coilys and then can't lower enough.
The back is fine they sit further in than the fronts.
Would rolling the arches help much for the front?
#7: Re: Front camber with coilovers? Author: Seabook, Posted: Thu Jul 14, 2011 7:22 am ---- what nimrod? 206 or 406?
what offset? what tyre?
#8: Re: Front camber with coilovers? Author: DeadEyePaul, Location: Rugby,WarwickshirePosted: Thu Jul 14, 2011 7:46 am ---- I have seen spacers for sale that are designed to achieve camber but I'm not sure how good they are

Not laughing at you personally.
But how is that possible. The spacers could be angled, but once the wheel has made half a rotation... Bit wobbly don't you think?

Thinking about it more, the wheels would have to be machined as well as the hubs.

Or was it push his back wheels up his bottom

Author: Edward, Location: In the garagePosted: Thu Jul 14, 2011 12:19 pm ---- I was going to suggest getting some negative camber front hubs from Peugeot Sport...but then I noticed the reason for wanting some camber is just for looks. I never want to see such finery on a car build just to look better.

are you planning to get some edward?
#22: Re: Front camber with coilovers? Author: Edward, Location: In the garagePosted: Thu Jul 14, 2011 12:56 pm ---- No point on a road car. Will result in tyres wearing too quickly as toe settings need to be changed to avoid the steering pulling this way and that. Good on a track car but not necessary on mine.
