I want to drop my car 1.25 inches all the way around using 8.5" wheels with 8mm spacers? I want to get between 1.5-1.7 negative camber - currently at 1.9-2.1. Is this possible with just half a set? If I remember correctly you do the top if only using a half set?

Tires should be here tomorrow - so car will be going in ASAP.

don't drive every day very far so I have opted for better handling.

I corrected from -2.5 to -1.6 with half a set (full set installed, but tops set to neutral) BUT that was with just shy of a 1 inch drop (25mm spacers) and the kmacs were set to their max adjustment. The more drop, the more the negative camberincreases exponentially. A small dif beyond 1 inch lowering requires a bigger eccentric throw on the kmacs. Most everyone who has done H&R springs has found the full set necessary and they are dropping about 1.2-1.3. Most have put just on the lower arms when they've used half a set. You can try it and see where you end up, but I wouldn't sell the other half of the kit til you put a gauge on it.

Hi, ;-)

I did the recall, and altho FriscoTT (or somebody) mentioned that Rector Audi re-did the Griffin Motorwerke control arm mod, they didn't on mine, so my rear camber is now horrendous, visibly.

my drop is near 2", so it sounds like i might need a full set, but i'm not sure. are you thinking about getting a set?

Ken...You're definitely going to need a full set...

the dealer will also bore out the holes to try to get the wheels into specs...per Braman Audi

Hey Joe, as Steven mentioned, you'd be okay with half

joe@vwvortex

I've got a full set right now. I'll tell him to do the install on bottom and check camber on Hunter machine. If need be do the top. Thanks for the info folks - hopefully i'll get this done before the weekend.
