Need more rear camber

[ShaneKucyk]

Hello, I have a B8.5 RS5 on air suspension. I need more rear camber than factory permits. Does anyone have a solution for this? I've searched quite a bit and can only find front upper control arms! Need to know ASAP thanks in advance

I'm like 8mm away from tucking my new wheels so I need like 2 more degrees to clear it, any help would be appreciated! So dumb how little adjustment comes from factory!!!!!

When I tried searching for a solution to my A5 there wasn't much information available. The conclusion I came to was that the "eccentric" bolt or whatever it is that you use to adjust camber needs to be modified, but could not find any information on modifying it for our chassis. The only info I came across was modifying it for a mk5 VW.

Yes, it is an eccentric bolt! Yep can't find anything on it as well, would like to know if its too sketchy to modify the factory bolt.

Im almost certain Audi didn't have a modified car on air suspension in mind when they engineered the adjustment of the suspension

How much camber do you have at the rear? At 3" lower you should have around 2.5' of negative camber just through the action of the arms, you should still have another 1 degree of adjustment on top of that. Do you need more than 3.5' of negative camber? What size and offset wheels are you running?

You could try removing the offset washer altogether and seeing if there's any more movement available on the bolt, it there is then you could machine down the narrowest side of the offset washer to give you maximum movement.

This is what I saw someone do on VWvortex , but this was of course with the mk5/Mk6 chassis. There was also a person making custom aftermarket bolts for more cambers. I would try this first, might bring it in another degree or so. Last resort might have to put a slight pull on the fenders ?


PS: he needs maximum x maximum camber because he is a dapper stance god and Instagram famous.

10.5 +18 with 275/30/20 Toyo Proxes. Sits right on the lip, trying to squeeze it inside of the arch. I've already maxed it out myself. I'll try removing the washer tonight!

LMAO! I would have a hard time describing myself like you just did. Just another guy trying to do some stupid stuff to his Audi.
