Pillow Ball Mounts?!? - SR20 Community Forum

SanDiegoSRSX · 02-24-2008, 11:39 AM

Well I'm about to install some Tein Basics on my B14 and I was wondering
if I don't run pillow ball mounts in the front will my tires get destroyed ?
After install I'm planning on getting an alignment.
Thanks

You need to be able to adjust the camber as well. Pillow ball mounts are the best way to do this but you could go with the cheaper cam bolts if you wanted.

I've never heard about the cam bolts, could you explain what it is please? Thanks

the bolt that goes trough your knuckle. they have one of those offset center thing so that you can adjust up to -1/+1 degree or something like that.

Would I need these if the car I'm running the coilovers on is a dd?

if your alignment is off and you can not adjust your camber, yes
