Hi guys, I'm planning on lowering my rs5 pretty soon and was wondering if a camber kit would be appropriate. I know that the negative camber improves handling and such, but at the same time, I don't want too much negative camber. Any thoughts/ideas? TIA!

probably not nessasary , a good alignment afterwards will bring it very close to spec where you still get a useful life out of the tires.

Thanks evo. That'll be done for sure. Are you lowered too?

My RS5 has been lowered ~1.5" on KW for two years as a DD (and track events) and all I did was an alignment after install. There isn't enough range in the OEM adjustments to return the specs to stock, but it isn't far enough off that I'm seeing a meaningful increase in tire wear. Good luck.
