Coilovers combine a coil spring over a damper with a height adjustable spring seat.
Coilover is also a term used to describe an aftermarket ride height adjustable sports
suspension kit.

On a Coilover the spring sits on an adjustable spring seat, also known as a spring perch These adjusters collars wind up and down the shock body to change ride height without effecting spring compression.

Shock absorber damping rates are matched to the increase spring rate giving a firmer yet forgiving ride quality. Coilovers are used by car enthusiasts all over the World to professionally lower their cars.

With the Coilover being height adjustable it allows the customer to set the perfect ride height and Stance. Slightly lower for everyday driving or super low for slow urban cruising or weekend shows, the choice is yours.

Aftermarket coilovers replace a car’s standard springs and dampers with a matched suspension system. Most coilover kits feature adjustable spring platforms that allow the vehicle’s ride height to be raised or lowered.

Coilovers are commonly fitted to:

• Adjust and lower a car’s ride height
• Improve its stance and appearance
• Reduce body roll
• Sharpen steering response
• Improve handling and chassis control
• Replace worn original suspension

The spring supports the vehicle’s weight and absorbs movement from the road, while the damper controls how quickly the suspension compresses and rebounds. These components work together to keep the car stable and help maintain tyre contact with the road.

Some coilovers only provide ride-height adjustment, while more advanced kits also offer adjustable damping. This allows the suspension response to be made softer or firmer to suit the vehicle and intended use.

Stance+ coilovers provide a complete, height-adjustable suspension upgrade for daily drivers, modified road cars, show cars and performance builds. The Stance+ Street, Stance+ Ultra, and Stance+ Proline ranges offer different levels of lowering, comfort and suspension control, making it easier to select the right coilover kit for your car.

Stance Coilovers is a term applied to a ride height adjustable suspension kit that offers a slightly lower drop than a normal conventional coilover kit. The Stance+ kits are engineered and designed to go lower than most other manufacturers brands. Most Stance+ kits lower between 35-90mm.

Stance+ is THE brand of choice for most customers looking for a Stance Coilover Suspension Kit. We have been one of the best selling Coilover Suspension Kit brands in the UK for over 10 years. Our kits offer superb build quality, increased performance, great lowering range and offer superb value for money. We have sold over 100,000 kits over the past decade.

Our Stance+ Coilover brand is very well known throughout the industry for quality, reliability and precision engineering. The kits offer a huge range of height adjustment, superb handling and ride quality.

We have thousands of positive comments online combined with many Youtube reviews and fitting videos.

All our Stance+ Coilover kits come with a 2 Year unlimited mileage guarantee. Offering unbeatable value, quality and performance.

Maintenance is very simple, before installing your Coilover Kit it is advised to coat
the threads of the adjuster collars with copper grease. This protects the threads from road debris and increases weather protection. For cleaning simply jet wash the kit with a suitable car shampoo or quality snowfoam, rinsing off with clean water.

Regular clean off any heavy road debris, especially in winter. Salt on British roads can cause issues so regular cleaning through winter is advised.

All our Stance+ Coilover kits come with a 2 Year, unlimited mileage guarantee. With proper care and maintenance they should last the lifetime of the vehicle.

Once the Coilover Kit has been fitted the ride height can be adjusted easily on the car to suit your desired look and driving style.

The car must be jacked up and the strut allowed to fully extend removing any tension from the springs. To raise the car, you wind the spring seat up, to lower the car you wind the spring seat down. Coilover C-spanner / spanners are included in the kits To help you adjust the spring seat and locking rings.

Take care to make sure each apposing side is set at the same ride height. We recommend having the front 5-10mm lower than the back, this normally aids handling and allows enough travel on the rear to accommodate a full tank of fuel, passengers and luggage.

The damping and spring rates on our Coilover kits are uprated by approximately 25%-30%. This gives a firmer, sportier ride quality without compromising ride comfort. The car will ride slightly firmer but can be used for daily commuting.

Improvement in Handling and on road stability: Coilovers significantly improve handling by reducing body roll, increasing cornering stability, and lowering the car’s centre of gravity. This makes them a popular upgrade for performance road cars and track cars.

With Coilovers the uprated damping setting and lower ride height allows the car to react better to weight transfer, which is crucial during fast turns or sudden stops. The uprated damping absorbs bumps better, while stiffer, progressively wound springs reduce bounce and body movement.

Coilovers have adjustable ride height. Lowering the car reduces the centre of gravity and improves balance and road holding. The lowered ride height and firmer damping reduces lean in corners and keeps the tyres planted on the road for better grip. This results in quicker steering response and more confidence behind the wheel.

The simple answer is NO.

Our brand is Stance+. We are the original UK Stance Coilover Suspension brand.

Established over a decade ago we have over 10 years of research and development under our belts. Each kit we sell has been tried, tested and refined for each vehicle. Over the past 10 years we have sold over 100,000 coilover suspension kits. Many kits have been refined and tweaked to ensure you get the most reliable performing kit we can make.

Important note: Please be aware that with the popularity of the Stance+ brand we have seen a rise in competitors playing off the Stance+ brand name.

Any company calling their Coilover kits; Stance Coilovers or Stanced Coilovers are nothing to do with Stance+.

Please note: Our Stance+ Coilover kits are distinctive. Kits are supplied in Stance+ branded WHITE and GREY boxes.

Stance+ Coilover kits are finished with either powder coated BLACK or ZINC plated damper bodies. Coilover springs are BLACK, combined with aluminium PURPLE locking rings and matching Hardware.

When purchasing a Stance+ Coilover kit, make sure it has the Stance+ branding. Some competitors kits look very similar to ours, be very careful when ordering online.

A question we get asked a lot.

The Stance+ Street Kits are our entry level range of coilovers. Designed specifically for road cars. The ride quality is compliant for everyday use, not too hard like some competitor’s kits. The Stance+ Street Coilovers use oil filled dampers and are powder coated black, with anodised purple adjuster collars. Some kits may require short drop links which we sell separately. Most kits lower from 30mm to 80mm. 2 year warranty as standard. One adjuster spanner included.

The Stance+ Ultra kits are slightly more expensive, offer a slightly lower drop to the Stance+ Street kits, and use oil filled and gas charged dampers, which offer an even smoother, more refined ride quality. The shock absorber bodies are zinc plated, with purple anodised adjuster collars. Shorter drop links are included, if needed. Most kits lower from 30mm to 100mm. 2 year warranty as standard. Two adjuster spanners included.

Coilover Suspension Kits are a direct replacement to the factory fitted suspension. Everything you need is included in the kit. The only parts you need to re-use are the top mounts and bearing assembly. Fitting is a reverse of removing the O.E factory suspension. We always recommend you use a professional garage to fit your Coilover Suspension kit.

There are no special tools needed, a decent socket set and spanner set is all you need, although you will need spring compressors if you plan on re-using the old factory top mounts and bearings.

For safety and performance we always recommend fitting new top mounts and bearings with our Stance+ Coilover Kits.

Please note: When fitting the top mounts you must not grip the piston rods. The Stance+ Coilover Kits use either a socket or Allen key top on the damper to stop the piston rod from turning when tightening down the top mount nut assembly. Gripping the rods with pliers or mole grips will score the rods resulting in the dampers leaking.

All our Stance+ Coilover Suspension Kits are made from precision engineered High Tensile Steel, with high grade 6061-T6 billet aluminium locking rings and hardware anodised PURPLE for added weather protection.

Some cheaper coilover brands use composite locking rings to save money which can compromise on quality and performance. At Stance+ we only use the very best materials available.

Why choose 6061 Aluminium Alloy over composite for our hardware? 6061 is a precipitation-hardened alloy containing magnesium and silicon as its major alloying elements. It is selected for automotive suspension parts because it provides an excellent balance of high structural strength, lightweight performance, and good machinability.

T6 Temper: The "T6" designation indicates that the metal has undergone a rigorous heat-treatment and artificial aging process. This treatment nearly doubles the yield strength of the raw aluminium, ensuring the adjusters and top caps can withstand the intense, continuous compression loads exerted by the coilover springs.

Billet Production: High quality adjusters are CNC-machined from a solid block (billet) of raw metal rather than being cast. This eliminates internal air pockets or structural imperfections, resulting in vastly superior thread strength and durability

A Lowering Spring kit is the cheapest and most cost-effective way of lowering your vehicle. Lowering Springs are supplied as a full complete car set. They are a direct replacement to the standard factory fitted O.E springs.

Fitting is very straightforward, usually taking a couple of hours if fit professionally. Once fitted the car will look lower, sit more aggressive and have a much better stance. The lower centre of gravity improves road holding and handling.

The main reason customers fit Lowering Springs is for looks and increasing the cars handling performance.

Lowering your car reduces the gap in the wheel arches, the springs are usually uprated by around 25% giving a slightly firmer ride quality.

Fitting Stance+ Lowering Springs lowers the centre of gravity, which reduces body roll during cornering and will help improves cornering speeds.

No not necessarily. Lowering Springs are engineered to work with standard, full-length shock absorbers. The stock O.E shocks must be in good condition otherwise you will compromise the handling of the vehicle. They can also be matched with aftermarket dampers such as Bilstein, Koni, Spax and KW etc.

Most of our Stance+ Lowering Springs lower between 25mm and 45mm and will work fine with standard suspension struts.

The Lowering Springs will work with all manufacturers dampers including the more modern electronic units. One of the benefits of Lowering Springs is they leave your existing adaptive
(electronic) dampers untouched, allowing you to retain the functionality of your suspension system while still gaining the benefits of a lowered ride height.

Please be aware lowering more than 60mm it is recommended to fit shorter sports dampers / shock absorbers as a stock length damper could run the risk of bottoming out and damaging the delicate damping valve gear inside the shock.

Lowering Springs are wound shorter than the stock O.E springs and are usually made from a slightly thicker gauge of steel. Lowering Springs are normally uprated by around 25% and are therefore a little firmer than the factory fitted springs which are predominantly designed for comfort.

Once your Lowering Springs have been fitted you will likely notice a firmer, sportier ride quality. Stance+ Lowering Springs are expertly engineered for ride comfort and performance. The springs are progressively wound for comfort and increased road holding. The car will feel sportier to drive and with the lower centre of gravity means it will handle much better.

Most Lowering Springs manufacturers offer drops between 25mm and 60mm. Any lower than this and you will need to change the stock O.E dampers for a shorter uprated sports shock absorber.

The majority of our Stance+ Lowering Springs will lower the car between 30mm and 55mm, there are various drops to choose from and all our springs can be used with the factory fitted dampers.

If you want the car lower than 60mm it is strongly advised to purchase a ride height adjustable Coilover Suspension Kit.

We have various Coilover kits available on our site: Stance+ Street, Ultra and Proline.

The simple answer is yes. Any change in a vehicles ride height will change the caster and camber angles of the suspension. A professional alignment is essential after installing Lowering Springs. This can be done by any garage with a good quality laser alignment machine. We always recommend using the Hunter brand of laser alignment machine. These are usually designed specifically to sort the geometry on lowered vehicles.

Lowering a vehicle changes the suspension geometry and wheel angles (camber and toe), and an alignment is needed to prevent premature or uneven tyre wear and ensure safe handling.

It is recommended to drive the vehicle for a short time to allow the new Lowering Springs to bed in (around 50 miles) this allows the springs to settle into place before getting the alignment done.

Yes, in the UK it is legal to lower your car. The only thing you will have to do is notify your insurance company of the modification.

Air Suspension Lowering Link Kits are the cheapest and most cost-effective way of lowering your factory equipped air suspension vehicle. The adjustable length links are supplied as a full complete car set. There are various kits available on the market.

Our Stance+ Air Suspension Lowering Link Kits are a direct replacement to the standard factory fitted O.E links. Fitting is very straightforward, usually taking 45-60 minutes if fit professionally.

Once fitted the car will look lower, sit more aggressive and have a much better stance. The lower centre of gravity improves road holding and handling.

You cannot install Lowering Springs or Coilover Kits on factory air suspension equipped vehicles. The only way of lowering the car is to swap out the longer, fixed length suspension links for an adjustable length aftermarket set.

The primary reason customers fit them are for looks and handling performance. Lowering your car reduces the gap in the wheel arches for a sportier more aggressive look.

Our Stance+ Lowering Link Kit allows various ride height options, lowering the car reduces the centre of gravity, which reduces body roll during cornering and will help improve cornering speeds.

The simple answer is no.

Air Suspension Lowering Link Kits only adjust the ride height. They do not effect the damping settings. The car will drive lower, but the ride quality will not be effected.

The car will feel sportier to drive and with the lower centre of gravity handle
much better.

Most Air Suspension Lowering Link Kits offer a drop between 0mm to 60mm. Height adjustment can be tailored to the millimeter.

Setting the links any lower than 60mm could cause wheel and tyre contact with the chassis or bodywork.

We find most customers using our Stance+ Lowering Link Kits normally drop their vehicles around 30mm-45mm.

The simple answer is yes.

One of the benefits of the Air Suspension Lowering Link Kits is they leave your existing adaptive (electronic) dampers untouched, allowing you to retain the functionality of your suspension system while still gaining the benefits of a lowered ride height.

All functions of the manufacturers air suspension system remain. With the lowering link installed the cars air suspension raising and lowering feature will remain, but each setting will be slightly lower depending on the lowering link length you have chosen.

Auto-levelling, high-clearance presets, low-clearance presets and the adaptive damping all working as the manufacturer intended. No error codes or fault lights.

The simple answer is yes. Any change in a vehicles ride height will change the caster and camber angles of the suspension. A professional alignment is essential after installing the Air Suspension Lowering Link Kit. This can be done by any garage with a good quality laser alignment machine. We always recommend the Hunter brand of machines as these specialise in lowered vehicles.

Lowering a vehicle changes the suspension geometry and wheel angles (camber and toe), and an alignment is needed to prevent premature or uneven tyre wear and ensure safe handling.

A shorter fixed length drop link cannot be adjusted in length, they are normally 20-30mm shorter than the stock O.E drop link length. An adjustable length drop link can be tailored to whatever size and length you require.

Fixed length, shorter drop links can be used if you know the exact length of drop link you need for your car. If you are having issues with the roll bar making contact with the chassis or drive shaft on your lowered car the fixed length short drop links usually cures the issue.

Adjustable drop links are generally recommended for coilover suspension systems because they allow you to set the precise length needed to eliminate all pre-load on the anti-roll bar while the car is on level ground. This ensures optimal performance and longevity of all components.

Shortened drop links are to be used on lowered cars when the factory supplied drop links are too long. This can be necessary when a car has been lowered more than 40mm or more commonly when an aftermarket suspension kit has been fitted.

If your anti-roll bar is making contact with your chassis or drive shaft you will need a shorter or adjustable drop link.

Some aftermarket suspension kits and coilover kits are designed to use the factory length drop links, however some kits are not. It all depends on where the drop link bracket has been mounted on the front strut.

Short drop links are used mainly on Coilover Suspension Kits where the drop link brackets are located lower down the strut housing compared to the factory fitted dampers. A bracket welded lower down the strut compared to the factory unit means a shorter drop link needs to be use. The shorter fixed length drop links offer a quick, straight out of the box solution where adjustable length drop link kits offer a more tailored solution.

Our range of Stance+ Shortened Drop Links and our Stance+ Adjustable Length Drop Links allow you to set the roll bar at the perfect neutral point, the simplest way to sort the anti-roll bar geometry on a lowered car.

Shorter drop links themselves have no effect on the vehicle's ride height. Their main contribution to handling comes from ensuring the anti-roll bar operates correctly without pre-load, allowing the suspension to perform optimally as designed.

Prevents Contact: Creates necessary clearance between the driveshaft and the
anti-roll bar.

Reduces Wear: Stops premature wear on ball joints and mounting brackets.

Eliminates Noise: Gets rid of the knocking sound from worn or stressed drop links.

Restores Geometry: Allows the suspension to function as intended by removing preload.

The main reason is clearance Issues: Lowering a car significantly (e.g. 40mm or more) can change the angle of the standard drop links, causing the anti-roll bar to make contact with the chassis or drive shafts.

Lowering a car and still using the factory length drop links can also change the angle and position of the anti-roll bar relative to the suspension. Standard length drop links can cause the anti-roll bar to sit at an improper angle, putting it in a state of pre-load (tension). This can cause contact with other suspension components when the car is being driven.  

Stance+ Shorter Drop Links or the Stance+ Adjustable Length Drop Links correct the anti-roll bars angle, allowing it to work as intended and preventing premature wear or damage.

Preload & Stress: Standard drop links force the anti-roll bar / sway bar into a
twisted (preloaded) position, causing premature wear and knocking noises.

Performance: Correcting the drop link length ensures the anti-roll bar / sway
bar isn't constantly fighting itself, improving handling and suspension
response. 

A drop link (also known as a sway bar link or a stabiliser link) is a short metal rod with pivoting ball joints that connects the vehicle's anti-roll bar to the vehicles suspension strut or wishbone.

Shortened drop links help reduce contact between the drive shaft and front anti roll bar on lowered vehicles. The lower your car is dropped the more stress is put on the standard drop link, causing them to wear and knock.

The Stance+ Shorter Drop Links are essential for lowered cars running a front drop link assembly.

Function of a drop link: To connect the anti-roll bar (sway bar) to the suspension strut/damper
or suspension shock absorber as they are commonly known.

Purpose of a drop link: To allow the anti-roll bar to work effectively by keeping it
parallel to the ground, reducing body roll. 

Choosing the right wheel spacer size involves making sure you select the correct PCD, centre bore and width for your vehicle. Measuring the gap between the tyre and wheel arch can help determine the spacer width required.

The good news is all our Stance+ Alloy Wheel Spacers listings are car specific which ensures you get the correct PCD and centre bore for your car. The only choice you need to make is selecting the correct width. It is essential you don’t go too wide as this can cause the wheel to protrude past
the wheel arch, which is illegal. Be careful and sensible when selecting sizes.

Wheel spacers are machined round metal plates, usually made of aluminum, that fit between the vehicle's wheel hub and wheel. They essentially push the wheels outward from the car, which makes the track width wider. The wider track effectively changes the wheel to a more negative offset, and pushes the tyres closer to the outer edge of the wheel arches.

Stance+ Alloy Wheel Spacers are not multi drill like some cheaper brands, each spacer is drilled to your cars specific PCD and centre bore, this significantly reduces imbalance and wheel wobble experienced with cheaper multi drill spacers.  

The simple answer is, no. Fitting Wheel Spacers will not affect the wheel alignment or geometry of the vehicle.

Properly fitted Wheel Spacers can improve the cars handling and cornering performance. The wider track and wider stance will improve road holding, offering better stability and giving the car a more aggressive look.

However, excessively thick spacers or incorrect installation can negatively affect performance by putting extra stress on suspension components, bearings and wheel studs. Going too wide can cause tyre and wheel arch contact which can be dangerous.

All our Stance+ Alloy Wheel Spacers are made to exacting standards. These lightweight spacers are made from T6061 Aircraft grade aluminium. Anodised for extra weather protection and laser etched with the Stance+ logo.

Our larger bolt on style 20mm to 40mm spacers are supplied with heavy duty steel wheel bolt inserts for extra strength and safety.

The simple answer is yes. Any wheel spacer wider than 3mm will require longer wheel bolts.

Working out which length of bolt you require is very straightforward. You first need to measure the thread length of your stock O.E wheel bolt.

For example: If the factory fitted wheel bolt thread length is 27mm long and you’re
fitting 13mm spacers you will require 40mm thread length wheel bolts. The calculation is: (27mm (wheel bolt)+13mm (Spacer)) = 40mm.

Fitting a wheel bolt a couple of millimeters too long is normally not an issue. Care must be taken to prevent ordering bolts which can be excessively too long which could damage the ABS ring mounted behind the brake discs.

PCD Wheel Hub Adapters bolt to your wheel hub using the bolts supplied in the kits. The new PCD wheel then bolts to the adapter using the new wheels original fitting bolts (not supplied).

The PCD Adapter needs to be fitted and torqued to manufacturers settings. The new wheel is then bolted to the adapter using the new wheels specific bolts, again torqued to manufactures settings.

All our Stance+ Alloy PCD Wheel Hub Adapters are drilled to your cars specific PCD and centre bore, this significantly reduces the possibility of ordering the incorrect kit. Please use the car compatibility tables on our website to confirm fitment.

All our Stance+ PCD Wheel Hub Adapters are made to exacting standards. These lightweight spacers are made from T6061 Aircraft grade aluminium. Anodised for extra weather protection and laser etched with the Stance+ logo.

If possible, our adapters use heavy duty steel wheel bolt inserts for extra strength and safety.

The simple answer is, no. Fitting PCD Wheel Hub Adapters will not affect the wheel alignment or geometry of the vehicle.

Properly fitted PCD Adapters can improve the car’s handling and cornering performance.

The wider track and wider stance will improve road holding, offering better stability and giving the car a more aggressive look.

Please be aware excessively wide PCD Adapters or incorrect installation can negatively affect performance by putting extra stress on suspension components, bearings and wheel studs.

Choosing the right PCD Wheel Hub Adapter size involves considering the bolt pattern, hub
centre bore, thickness, and thread pitch you need.

The CAR PCD and centre bore must match the vehicle it is being fitted to. The new WHEEL PCD and centre bore must match the new wheel manufacturers PCD and centre bore. The width of adapter must be calculated correctly so the wheel sits flush in the wheel arch. Too narrow and the wheel may make contact with the suspension strut, too wide and the tyre may make contact with the wheel arch.

Measuring the offset and gap between the tyre and wheel arch can help determine the adapter width required.

Our Stance+ PCD Adapter listings are car specific which ensures you get the correct PCD and
centre bore for your car. The only choice you need to make is selecting the new PCD you need and the correct width. It is essential you don’t go too wide as this can cause the new wheel to protrude past the wheel arch which can cause tyre and arch damage.

Be careful and sensible when selecting sizes.

PCD Wheel Hub Adapters or (Pitch Circle Diameter Adapters) are metal wheel spacers used to change a vehicles wheel bolt pattern. PCD Adapters allow you to safely convert the fitment of your vehicles hub to the new bolt pattern and centre bore required to fit your new wheels.

PCD Adapters bolt onto your existing wheel hub providing a new set of studs or bolt holes allowing you to mount wheels with a different PCD and centre bore to your car.

There are various sizes and styles available. Most common is converting a 4-stud car to a 5-stud, or converting a 5-stud VW to a 5-stud Porsche. Most combinations are possible.

We offer a large range of Stance+ PCD Adapters to suite a huge range of popular cars.

PCD Wheel Hub Adapters are supplied with all necessary mounting bolts. Everything you need to mount the adapter to the hub is included in the kit.

To mount the new PCD wheel to the PCD Adapter will require the standard length wheel bolts supplied with the new PCD wheels. There is no need to purchase longer wheel bolts.

New Wheel fastening bolts are not included in PCD Adapter Kits. Wheel bolts matching the new wheel specification must be used. Stock wheel bolt length should ONLY be used (between 25-30mm thread length). Using anything longer may damage the PCD Adapter.

A camber correction or camber alignment kit as they are also known is an aftermarket suspension component that allows you to change the camber settings on your vehicle’s suspension.

Camber alignment kits are supplied in various designs, depending on the vehicle and application needed. Normally used on cars and vehicles that have been lowered where fresh wheel alignment settings are needed and cannot be achieved using standard factory parts.

Camber Bolts: These use an off-centre lobe design and are installed in the strut-to-hub mounting holes, usually replacing the top shock mounting bolt. When rotated, they shift the lower part of the wheel assembly in or out, providing a small amount of adjustment (typically -1.75 to +1.75.).

Camber Shims: These nylon camber shims sit between the rear fixed beam stub axle and brake disc. Available for various cars allowing a -1.5 to +1.5 camber adjustment on most applications.

Camber Adjustable Rear Control Arms: These replace the factory fitted rear control arms allowing a huge range of length adjustment. Camber can be set between -4.0 to +4.0 in most applications.

Camber Plates: Used primarily on MacPherson front strut suspensions, these replace the top strut mount and allow the top of the strut to slide from side-to-side, changing the angle of the wheel. Great for positive or negative camber changes on most performance cars.     

Camber and Caster Adjustable Bushes: We can supply a range of Powerflex camber and caster control bushes. These have an off-centre mounting hole and can be pressed into existing control arms to provide slight camber corrections. Normally between -2.0 to +2.0.

At Stance+ we offer an ever growing range of Camber correction kits, we are adding to the range regularly.

Wheel Camber: Wheel Camber is the tilt of the tyre as viewed from the front/rear of the car. If the top of the tyres leans toward the centre of the car, then you have negative camber. If the top of the tyre tilts out away from the centre of the car, then you have positive camber.

Adjusting camber can have a dramatic effect on the cornering ability and handling of your car. Get it wrong and you can ruin both the handling and performance of your vehicle.

Camber is measured with a caster/camber gauge and is usually easily adjusted with Stance+ Camber Bolts, Camber Shims, Camber Adjustable Rear Control Arms, Camber top mount plates or Camber adjustable suspension bushes.

Alignment settings should always be done by a professional using a laser alignment machine.

Negative Camber: Negative Camber is usually caused when a vehicle is running lowered suspension. If the top of the tyre leans toward the centre of the car, then you have negative camber. Negative camber is common in race cars for enhanced cornering grip. The increase in negative camber maximises the tyres contact patch during aggressive cornering speeds. Great for increasing cornering ability but bad for tyre wear.

Positive Camber: Positive camber is usually caused when you raise a vehicle past the manufacturer’s suspension settings or when a new suspension kit has been fitted, but the car has yet to be aligned. If the top of the tyre leans away from the car you have positive camber. Positive camber causes poor handling and increases uneven tyre wear.

Zero Camber: Zero camber means your tyre fits flat and flush to the road, perfectly vertical in appearance. Zero camber maximises the cars contact patch to the roads surface ensuring safe handling and even tyre wear, essential for road cars.

Correct camber setting is critical for safe handling, stability and performance. Zero camber ensures better handling and even tyre wear. Incorrect camber can cause the car to pull to one side and increases tyre wear.

You may need a Camber Alignment kit in the following situations:

After Lowering or Lifting your car:

Changing the vehicles ride height will significantly change the factory suspension geometry. Lowering normally results in negative camber, raising the vehicle normally results in positive camber. Stance+ Camber Alignment kits will help bring your car back towards a safer factory specification camber setting.

To prevent uneven tyre wear:

Negative camber can wear the inside of your tyres faster than a neutral camber setting. Positive camber can be equally as bad and cause excess wear to the outside of your tyres.

For track driving or circuit racing:

Race cars benefit from negative camber which will increase stability and grip during high-speed cornering and aggressive steering.

The simple answer is yes. Installing a camber kit is a significant suspension modification so it is essential you take your car to a wheel alignment centre and have the geometry professionally set up. Failure to do so will cause excessive tyre wear and poor handling.
