Focus Rear Camber

Focus Rear Camber
When you lower a focus it gives negative camber on the rear end, to combat this i have purchased Eibach rear camber adjustment bolts which allow 1- or 1+ of adjustment. Because the rear is down 50mm on coilovers shall i just add 1+ with the bolts and leave it there, it is going in for alignment next week and im not sure they will want to touch these bolts?

personally i'd just fit them as close to equal on both sides and then get whoever does the realigning to use thoes bolts aswell.
should be able to get it in spec or if no then pretty close.

Graham Goode's garage is going to do the alignment, but when i explained about these bolts over the phone they sounded a bit unsure which suprised me, i thought they would be used to all sorts of suspension setups.
Will fit them over the weekend and then tell them to adjust them and see what they can do

i'm sure when they see them on the car andcan access them easily then they will be able to adjust them no problem. it may end up being a balancing act anyway where they tweek the standard bolt and it gets closer to spec, then the aftermarket bolt, then standard bolt etc.
post up the before and after results too mate.

Ok no problemo, they should give me a print out but will aks for one anyway. I only had the car tracked recently when i had new front tyres and within a couple of thousand miles they have started to wear on the inside inch of each of the fronts!! Does the front have camber problems too.

you will inevitably increase the cambe on the fronts too and you will have more wear with 50mm lowering than 30mm. adjustible top mounts will sort it out.
what size wheels/tyres do you use? big wheels with stiff walled low profile tyres will wear worse aswell.
