Need to know which camber kit is correct

[almightyfargoth]

I'm reverting back to noob form for this question.

I need a front camber kit, and I went ahead and searched on here and that didn't really tell me much in the way of what to actually buy.

Like a lot of people were talking about camber and toe and whether a certain ride height needs them. I'm saying I actually need them to correct it in the front because the inside edges of my front tires are gone.

I'm getting the tires themselves replaced of course, since one of them was actually showing thread but I'm not going to put the new ones on until I know I can get them aligned perfectly this time. I guess when I got the wheels and dropped the car I figured I'd wait and see if I needed a kit or not instead of buying it in the future, my mistake...because it would have prevented this.

So this is what I've found, and I would like to know which one is the one I should actually get. I can order it tonight and get this whole situation resolved this week, I just need to know which of these is the right one.

The first two seem to just be made by different companies, and I'm hoping that's the set I need since the price isn't too bad.

I'm dropped on KSports and they're not the ones with pillowball mounts if that makes any difference.

If I'm totally not even looking at the right thing (I hope I'm at least close?) please set me straight. I want to know these things for future reference.

As you can tell, this isn't my area of expertise. I just know the basics, so any advice you can offer I'd appreciate guys. I don't want to buy the wrong thing.

u want the ones that add degrees so u can have less camber if thats wut ur asking

im pretty sure its number 1. the one saying adjustable kit only

how many miles were on your tires and was the toe set to factory specs? When you run camber, its good to flip the tires once in a while so the tires will wear evenly. And with a front camber kit, if you go any lower than you are now, your camber kit hit your strut tower... NO matter which one you get.

And either one of those kits will add camber.

Option 1 can add -1.5 camber or add +1.5 camber.
Option 2 can add -1.5 camber or add +1.5 camber.
Option 3 can not add any negative camber and will automatically add +1 camber up to +4 camber.

I'm not sure how many miles, they were on there for about a year and a half and then I had them rotated to the back when I first noticed like five months ago. I'm pretty sure the toe was set up to compensate, not at factory settings.

This is just a case of me not remembering to check on something like this and it turned into my front tires being ruined.

If I go any lower it won't be by too much really like maybe half an inch, but let's just assume this entire time that I'm satisfied with the ride height so that's not a factor.

Ok so I can get one of the first two to adjust it correctly then?

still technically waiting on a straight answer guys

Both options 1 and 2 seem to work to me but sometimes it won't be enough. I mean my brother is lowered on some springs I don't know what they are called, and he has +3 to -3 camber kit (like option #3) and did alignment many times and is set max at his camber up front and it still eats his tires inside.

Also seems like SPC is better option for you.

I'm just wondering, why's that?

 

[Erik123456789]

I gave you a straight answer when you asked.

 

[almightyfargoth]

wait you did Erik? I was really tired that night.

I must have forgot...sorry

oh wait now I remember, you were saying the price difference is because of the different brands.

I just wanted to make absolutely sure with multiple people that I was buying the right thing, I'd rather not drop close to $170 and make a mistake.

Lol yeah, It's cool though. Always best to ask for more than one opinion.
