Modified lower arm bushes

I just wondered if these are worth the extra money, as i will be running 1.5 degrees of neg camber on my car?

Thanks

i've never fitted them before!! depending on where they are positioned they could either add/remove negi camber or alter a few things on ur suspension!! if its being setup properly then go for it and make sure u tell them the bottom bushes are offset and they can change the angle if required!!

personally id stick with either nylon or std type bushes!!

I have yet to use these, but they are supposed to be very good,

The Idea of them is that they are made offset for cars with a lot of added castor (std castor is 3 degish most well setup suspensions run about 5 degish)

When this extra castor is added it distorts the standard (or poly) bush causing it to fail, these bushes are made from rubber which has superior wear and noise absorbsion and should not fail as readily.
