Sorry to hijack, but what does the camber/toe kit do for you over the stock setup?

Can you recommend a place to purchase?

Thanks...

You'll only need it if you're lowered. Brings the alignment back into spec.

I haven't mentioned them because for 99% of the people here they have no use for them. There are too many shortcommings for someone to run that tire unless they really need to because of lack of traction.

For me.... the Proxes R888's are perfect and I love them on or off the track in the wet or dry.

Does this fix the pulling to the right issue?

Same here, on this site most will bag on the 555's. I have great performance hot or cold, not much rain here in new America, this where they always bag on the NiTTos. I have yet to see anybody say anything either way on the Nitto drag radials.

Falken Azenis RT-615 has to be the best bang for the buck on the street. They looks so bada$$ too ! I just wish they made them in 19's.






or another really good performing tire for someone with power is the BFGoodrich drag radials.
They also only come up to 18". These of course are less practical for the rain.




Alot of Supras and Cobra's are running these
