Well, I'm getting TEIN SS soon (hopefully) and yeah im slamming that biotch, so therefore I'm going to get a camber kit to compliment it.
I have a 2001 SH, yes an SH, so can anyone please recommend me a camber kit for the SH for correcting 1-3 degrees (please let me know if this wording is wrong). I'm planning on tucking it a little on stock rims and tires, so I'm thinking maybe -3 camber will occur w/o a camber kit? But I may be getting 17's later on, and I want the camber kit to compensate with that sze wheel/tire also.
One time alignment can go around $30-40. Lifetime alignment can go for about $140.
TimeRacer is right. Go get an alignment to see if you need a camber kit before you go out and buy one. And in the event you do need one, SPC is a good one to go with. Others have said good things about Ignalls.

Does anyone know how much they run for? I got offeres for $200 for front only, but I have also seen $160 new, and $90 used. I'm very confused on pricing, I don't want to pay too much for camber kits...
He'll probably need one anyway if he slames it right?
but yeah. its good idea to have alignment. and get it done ASAP after your drop.
My ride is lowered 2.75F, 2.5R. I had such bad wear on the inside of the tires
and were all dead after 3000 miles before I realized it.
I thought I would be ok, because I used to be slammed on my previous accord v6,
and didn't have much problem with it.. I guess lude is different.
Don't go through what i had to go through.
Alignment at most companies that I know of ~$70 w/ 1 year warranty. ~$225 for lifetime of the car w/ you as owner non-transferrable.
Alignment kits: Progress ~$120 (if you can find it... summitracing doesn't seem to carry it, that's where I picked up mine), SPC ~$150 (JEGS or summit), ingalls leaves the least amount of space so I wouldn't use theirs. However, if you want to go slammed you're probably better off leaving it alone unless you're extremely off (-2 or more neg camber).
Leaving it alone would just be because you're going to be causing damage with any camber kit as there isn't enough suspension travel to accomidate your look. Adding a camber kit might give your tires 20% life, but cost you a bunch of costs in possibly breaking parts. I'd recommend you raise the car as once you pass 2" of lowering you're killing your suspension's ability to perform properly.
I went with the SPC kit when I lowered mine. I couldn't tell you how much I lowered it though. (Don't have the stock ride height measurment any longer) I like the SPC system, worked well. You need to figure out which kit you want though, they have two different ones depending on the degrees of adjustment.
Also, depending on how much you drop your car and what your car has been through, you may end up buying new radius arms for your SH as the caster is NOT adjustable. Honda just sells different lengths to get you into specs.
But as said above, you won't know for sure until you get an alignment....
