rear camber kits
Is there one available for an 08 GTS? I had alignment and my rear is off by 2.1. Where can I get the kits for an 08 if there is one available? Thanks.

camber kits are used to keep your wheels properly aligned. usually you dont need one unless you are thinking about lowering your car. lowering affects the angle of which the tires meet the road.
maybe someone else could explain why bigger rims and tires would need a camber? 
djslik408 try looking around for an Ingalls Camber Kit.

every time you lower your car, the all geometry of the weight changes. Thats why you need the kit to get it aligned. Depending on how low you drop it, you may not need it if it isnt too dropped. In some cases it may just be off by a few degrees while in some, it may be way off.

Front Cambers go for $89 I believe if you order them from RoadRoad motorsports. I havent seen anything for the rear though.

Bigger wheels will change the distance and angles for your suspension. If you draw out a right triangle you can see how changing one side will increase the angles. Camber kit will allow you to readjust those angles, but I wouldn't think wheels alone would be enough to warrant a camber kit.

Once you get your alignment and you look at the printout you will see. My rear was off by 2.1 on one side and the other was like 1.6. It should show it in red color. If its green you are fine.
