Tanabe GF210 on stock Rims

Are there any camber problems when using Tanabe GF 210 with stock sport rims?

Currently im on 16" Konig Britelites

Im going back to stock sports this week. Im on Tanabe GF210s. Just wondering if there are camber problems with the 15" stock sports...
trying to decide to keep the springs or just go back to Stock springs as well.

(im doing a lot of moving around, heavy furniture, and lots of construction in my area)

If you lower, then you should align. Going 200-400 miles breaking in the springs a little before aligning isn't a big deal.

I understand. Im going to get new rims/tires. Im on GF210s right now for a year now. Never gotten an alignment. If i get one NOW... i think its a waste. I was planning on getting an alignment AFTER I get the new rims/tires.

How do I correct the toe?

toe is corrected with an alignment, same with camber. I've never gotten one and have had no major problems. MINOR camber wear but i counter it with rotating my tires more often. Just make sure u get bi-directional tires rather then uni-directional so u can do a standard rotation. Falken ze-912's are bi-directional, great tires.

I have the paper work of the alignment not with me though. The inner tires were getting worn fast but after the alignment it was fixed. No cambers were needed from what people on the forums said and what the people that did my alignment too.
