LOL, at $600 they are still a steal in comparison to what other setups cost! You do get what you paid for, I have never tried them but I keep hearing stories on Audizine about how bad the ride quality is on those and their cheap construction.

They're OK when you set it at a reasonable height.

Took the car today to Town fair tire for an all wheel alignment and they told me you cant adjust the camber in the rear with out a camber kit so I didnt get the alignment. Is there a camber kit for the rear and how hard is it to install. Gonna raise the rear up a little this weekend see if it makes a diffrence.

There's a bolt with an eccentric washer on the back of the spindle at the bottom, threaded forward into the spindle. The eccentric washer presses against a casting on the spindle to push the alignment in/out (it's a camber adjustment). They can mess with camber at that point.

Looks great!

+1 for a tiny raise in the back and drop in the front.

The raked look is pretty cool. I'm dropped 2.5" up front and 1.25" out back, and it took a bit to get used to but I do like it.
