Rear Camber Kit!

hey whats up people so I am in the works with a company called realcamber (they specialize in xB's) to make some rear camber kits for the fit. As of right now I think we are going to make a -3 and a -5 kit but we'll probably make less aggressive ones for other people. I just want to see how many people are interested in this so we can get the ball rolling and make more kits. Let me know! Thanks.

here is their website :
RealCamber.com | Camber Shims for the Scion xB



this xB is rocking theirre kit. They have more cars on the website and on the xB forum.

LIST :

1.towelie -5
2.travis -3
3.felix -3
4.dewthedew -3
5.vince
6.illmatic -3
7.rich -5
8.ant -3
9.khanhdom -5
10.ricky -3
11.untx3 -5
12. heymikeysays -3
13. lilcat -3

I'd be interested for sure, that way I can go all the way down in the rear. I'd probably be interested in the -2.5 to -3 range. Do you think they will cost about the same as the ones for the xB? $180 seems kinda spendy to me. Keep us posted.

$180 is cheap. The only other kit for the Fit is $500+.

As for the company, it is my friends Dan, Luke, and Mike. The kit for the xB is the best on the market currently.

As for degrees on camber, -3 and -5 would most likely be your only option. Anything less is a waste IMO.

a half of a degree isn't going to make that much of a difference.

YES, its a big difference. youll get maybe -1, -2 on a standard drop from lowering your car. depending on the drop, if u wanna stop rubbing or run wider wheels then more camber is the way. -3 u wont really see much of a difference.
