I have BMR SP080 SPRINGS, Stock PP struts and camber bolts. Had the car aligned today and Buddy said max camber was 1.3.

I figured it should be a lot more than that.

Anyine else?

Recommend giving Steeda a call to verify, but I believe they should go to -2.5-ish. I'm not sure if those ratings are at stock ride height or if that matters at all.

Seems like -2 should be easy.

I believe you need to slot the top hole of your struts .

I have the BMR camber bolts, Handling springs, and the same wheels (275/40 tires), and I could get -3.1 on drivers, -2.9 passenger for max camber. This results in the front wheels hitting the struts. I dialed it back to -2.6/7 and it clears the strut, BUT I'm getting inner fender liner rub/wear at lock (only noticed by visual inspection, never noise or feel.

I'll be dialing back to about -2.2 to utilize the entire contact patch.

Your setup is what I was hoping for. I pulled out last alignment settings before today (no camber bolts) and things were still-1.5/-1.4. So something is wrong. Contacted my guy. I have a track day in 5 days and wanted this setup right. Grrr

For on track events -1.9 would be better much than 1.5. Some thing is wrong on the install,the cam bolt should go in the upper hole. You should be able to rotate the camber bolt and watch the hub move in and out. If you need further information pm your contact info.
