Ingalls Engineering Camber Bolts
Tire Rack has these for sale on their web site for our cars:
http://www.tirerack.com/suspension/S...perf&x=79&y=15]
Anyone use these? I did a seach for "ingalls" but came up with nothing. Is this really necessary? Aren't the strut towers on our cars already sloted a bit? Here's the Ingalls site:
http://www.ingallseng.com/parts/81280.htm]
An explanation of their product:
" Why not just slot a strut instead of using a cam bolt?
It is possible to slot the strut and it is one of the first ways to change camber with a strut. Luckily someone had a better idea than slotting the strut. Instead of slotting the quickest way to change camber accurately is with one of the latest cam bolts. Removing the OE bolt and replacing it with a specially designed cam bolt, such as Ingalls Engineering FastCam tm is the quickest and most accurate way to change camber."
If I do get these along with an Eibach Pro Kit set of springs, will this help out the alignment shop and help me get better results in terms of handling and reduce excessive tire wear?
What if I decide not to get these camber bolts? Has anyone had problems with alignment without the Ingalls camber bolts?

Using cam bolts on our cars would change camber but also caster at the same time, the compound angle the strut sits at won`t allow a typical slotted or cam bolt adjustment like a regular strut front car. They selll these to alow an "easier" method of physically& precisely moving the strut to adjust camber on regular FWD cars.
Use the strut mount under the hood to adjust the camber if you need to...caster is also adjustable up there too.

these cars are not designed for those, do not use them. if you need extra room for adjustment, slot the tower a little bit
