Allignment Specs after Eibach Install.
??
After the Eibach springs are installed, you need to have the car aligned BACK to the latest alignment specs.
To achieve this, you (might) need adjustable camber arms for the back and (might) need adjustable A arms on the front.
I got the adjustable camber arms on the back (see Sig) and got back to spec on the dot. I did NOT get the front A arms, too much money for 0.02 adjustment...
Check the latest TSBs for the latest alignment specs.

Post alignment specs for my Track lowered on Eibach Pro-Kit springs:
LF: -1.8 for camber, 8.8 for caster, and 0.03 for toe
RF: -1.8 for camber, 8.7 for caster, and I think 0.05 for toe
LR: -2.0 for camber, 0.04 for toe
RR: -1.8 for camber, 0.05 for toe
LF: -1.8 for camber, 8.8 for caster, and 0.03 for toe
RF: -1.8 for camber, 8.7 for caster, and I think 0.05 for toe
LR: -2.0 for camber, 0.04 for toe
RR: -1.8 for camber, 0.05 for toe
JawKnee, thanks a million.
Do you think enthusiast model should be ok with these specs?
What happened is that I lowered my car like 6 month ago and after two month I alligned it at some shitty shop and while doing my oil change the other week I noticed that my front right tire is bold on inside and that's why I have to reallign it.

JawKnee,
Do you have a camber kit on the back. Because according to the service manual you are within spec for camber.

Many eons ago I said I would post my nums after Eibach and caster arms on rear. Here they are :
Front
Camber -1.5 -1.5 (bad, Max -1.3)
Caster 8.7 8.5
Toe 0.04 0.07
Rear
Camber -1.5 -1.4
Toe 0.10 0.11
At the times, only my front camber is off by -0.2. But camber is not adjustable in the front. So I have been considering adjustable front camber arms.
Now, with the new TSB, Toe is deemed to be excesive. I am working on getting those two values adjusted properly. I get feathering every 8K miles or so, on the front, due (per Nissan) to the toe.

I do have the camber arms for the rear. It went from -0.4 and 0.0 (BAD) to -1.5 and -1.4. The specs I had at the time called for rear camber between -2.1 and -1.1.
Actually, everything is ok except front camber which is not adjustable, so I am looking into front camber arms. But I am off by -0.2 degrees, which ain't much. Now I have to get rid of the TOE to eliminate the feathering.

FOr what I know, the toe on the back is ok. Since the Eibach drop is minimal, the camber arms brought camber to within spec and toe is ok (rear).
Camber in front is out (not adjustable) and toe is within spec but not per latest TSB. So when I go now, I want to solve two things : toe in front to TSB spec to solve feathering and camber arms to bring camber to spec in the front.
Thanks for the link. Interesting how a little thing like enlarging the bolt hole can give you the 1 degree +/- adjustment you need...
