Got -1.8 camber just from 1 SPC bolt only!

So was reading on the forum and noticed most folks complained using only a single SPC camber bolt the most they were able to get was around -1.0 camber.

So shockingly, my alignment shop told me they were able to get -1.8 up fronts with no problems at all with just swapping out a single strut bolt with the SPC.

My info:
2013 GE8 Base
swift springs
Progressive RSB
15x7 RPF1 w/ 205/50/15 BFG Rivals

So wonder what all the fuss was about needing two SPC bolts to get anywhere near -2.0?

They probably did the bottom bolt. Having the camber bolt up top is best for most angle

Nah ya got it wrong.

1.75 degress was the reported with one bolt.

~2.5 degrees was with two bolts.

Some people are running 1 degree with one bolt and not maxing them out.

Glad you got them in though, will be ordering mine tomorrow.
