So, I noticed that I am having some camber issues, where now my front tires are unevenly wearing out(treading on the inside of each tire wore out faster the outside treading). It looks to be a camber issue, though not really sure how that can be as I am not lowered, with the only suspension mod being replacing my stock worn-out shocks with D-specs. When I was getting my tired replaced the mechanic said my front passenger side a arm needs to be replaced(& adjusted) as it's a tad loose. Okay, that all I said I started to do a search for replacement parts, which as led me to noticing on amazon these products, which says also works for the gen 1 G35 sedan. My question is are they any good/worth it? The price seems certainly pretty good, but not familiar with the products. If not is there any suggestion on what to get as a replacement part that will also fix my camber issue? Thank you.

Well all I am really looking for is a replacement(well a little better would be nice) to fix my camber issue, and worn out part. What about Raybestos, Beck-Arnley, or Megan Racing? I don't want to spend thaat much.

Well do I need adjustable is the question? Because I am pretty much stock, minus the D-Spec shocks and 2006 G35 coupe sway bars, but I am still at stock ride height. I rather save the extra cash and put it towards gas, if adjustable control arm is not necessary. Thank you.
What about Megan Racing kit?

No plans to lower the car. And shop I go to previously aligned my car with stock arms, when installing the d-specs, and replacement oem bushings. I take just replacing the oem will fix my uneven tire wear(camber) issue?
Allstar what brand oem do you suggest I should get?

I did and there are three options available, which is part of the reason I stated this thread. I am not one would be the better oem brand. There is Raybestos, Beck-Arnley and Droman, all of which have been aforementioned. Thank you.

Sounds like you just need the OEM replacements. The only adjustment on the front is 'toe'. If you're having wear issues and you have not bent anything from pot holes or hitting something sizable and the bushings are good, it's toe that needs to be adjusted.
The 350Z has a decent amount of camber (I don't recall the spec off the top of my head) for a street car and by adding an aggressive amount of toe you can accelerate wear and make it look like a camber issue especially if you do not drive it hard in the corners.

Thank you. I don't think anything is bent and most of my front bushings have been replaced within the last 3 years. Yeah, all I am really looking for is OEM replacement, but again not sure which brand is the right one to get.
