I´m ready to put some BC Coilovers suspensions to my Z; good friend of mine is going to install them 4 me, but he wrote me this evening this:

 

**Hey I just thought of something unless you change the Camber arms on your suspension, when you lower it will wear the inner part of the tires and will handle like shit.**

 

Wanted to ask the experts around here is this true? I mean I ain´t doubting on his word, but what would happen if I just install the BC without the Camber arms?

 

Merry Xmas!

yes - lowering the car will increase the amount of negative camber & can cause tyre wear on the inner edge depending on how much camber it is running

 

and there is no adjustment as standard on the front (rear does have some adjustment but depending on how low you go may not have enough!) so adjustable arms are needed

 

also with adjustable upper arms you should also replace the tension rods with pillow joint ones as the upper arms will have solid bearings & not bushes!

Dropped mine on bc coilovers and ended up with about 5 degrees of front camber, that was wound right down though... but any lower than an inch from stock you're going to need camber arms, well worth it.

 

I need to get around to picking up all the arms for mine, i ended up going with front and rear camber arms, front traction rods, rear traction rods, and rear toe.

 

Cost me about 500 quid for the lot brand new.
