Do you need these rear camber arms if you install cobb lowering springs. I thought i heard that you don't because you are still in factor spec.
 
It's was my understanding that you did not need to install the camber arms if you chose the Cobb or Eibach Pro Kit. The drop is not that much. I got about .7" from the Eibach's. Also, I am still using the stock struts, til they wear out.
No problems so far.
 
"Need" is a relative term, in this instance.

I, for one, wouldn't install ANY setup on this car that lowers static ride height without changing out those arms for adjustable ones...This car already has too much rear camber relative to the front when it's stock, if you ask me.

:)
 
I've read on other forums that it is recommended to install camber links for a drop greater than 1". The MS Springs are only 1" roughly and the camber links are non-adjustable, but spec'd for 1" drop. The adjustable camber links are important for the lowering spring kits that drop more dramatically.

...or if you want to make sure you have even left-to-right camber settings, or if you want to have a proper front/rear camber balance...
 
Do you have any wheel gap in the rear?

Here it is with the stock tires 215/45/18. I need to get some 225/40's when these wear out.
