Default So are Rear Camber Arms worth it?

Allright. Well ive been looking around at rear camber arms. Well before my main focus was to get rid of the feathering and stuff up front so I bought an SPC Front Camber arm kit and it did a great job. But im going to be replacing my rear tires in the next 2 days for the first time and ill have to say i feel they wore out really quick. I cant remember how many miles i got on my tires (BFG KDW2's) but it wasnt that many and i definitely feel like i could have gotten more miles out of my rears....

So that note i started looking at Rear camber arms the last day and it looks to be promissing me that i can get allot more miles out of my rears (thats the impression i got). Soooo, im thinking about getting Rear camber arm kit..

These are the arms that im currently looking @..

http://www.intensepower.com/sostrecaad35.html

http://www.intensepower.com/horecali35g3.html + http://www.intensepower.com/horecali35g3.html

So heres the real question. Does anyone out here have any of these rear camber products (who are running tire sizes 19 with 35 series tires) and it helped you squeeze more miles out of ur rear tires?!?!

Let me know. ima try to be installing these asap if they do!

Thanx

SPC rear camber arms and toe bolts are the best bang for the buck setup you are going to find...

Where did you get the front SPC camber arm kit? I thought that SPC is still working on it and hasn't released them yet?

I just spoke to Hotchkis. They DO NOT make nor sell Rear Camber Adjusters.
I am not sure what Intense Motorsports is selling. All I can say is buyer beware on that.

As for the SPC, I thought they only made REAR camber/Toe adjusters. If you have Front A-Arms, let us know where you got them as I want to buy everything as a designed package myself.

I have Tein's Flex with the Kinetix rear camber/traction arms, they work great and are at a great price. I actally have the A-Arms, and they work great too, only downside is if you want to change the camber, it is adjustable, just takes forever.

Hello,

Lol. Hotchkis WAS going to make them, and that's why they were on our website. Obviously we never sold any, and there was never an ORDER button on the product. We are a Hotchkis authorized dealer. Thanks!
