Lowering & camber

Quick Q, couldnt find anything on the search. Does lowering the front of the car increase the negative camber?

Yes it will but if you lower the car, aligment is mandatory

Yes, it will increase negative camber and it is adjustable, but only within a very narrow range. Many people on this forum don't align their cars after a drop for some reason, but I highly recommend that you do.

Yes.
Camber is not individually adjustable on each front wheel. It can only be equalized left/right between a very small margin.

If you want to add adjustability check out our adjustable Control Arms in the GB section. These will add camber and caster adjustments to your suspension.

Thank you guys. How it is adjusted as a pair then?

Our car should be between 1 to 2 degree on camber when it is lowered.
It is not that bad if the tires are rotated regularly and corner it hard on turns.
