CAMBER question with lowering springs

[VR30Infection]

Not planning to drop a ton, but I feel like I’m going to like the drop and lower more than the current plan. I got a camber gauge for roughing it in to get me through a few days to let the springs settle, then taking it to a shop. Unless something feels off and I need the alignment pronto.

You’re going to want an alignment pronto. Your toe will be out of whack front and rear. Front camber is not adjustable and shouldn’t be too bad but the rear will be excessive. In the rear multi-link setup, toe and camber are effected by each others adjustments. If you lower the car an inch and drive around without an alignment for a week or so, you will kill your tires on the inside edge. Increase in negative camber with toe being off causes a scrubbing effect as you drive down the road.

Noted. Will do!
Didn't buy anything adjustable for the rear. Pretty sure I read here, but is it correct the factory adjustment in the rear can be adjusted to factory spec after a 1.0"-1.25" drop?
And, if not, what do I need?

Rear can be adjusted from the factory. Both Toe and Camber. You should be fine.

Yes, no problem. After Swifts install.

I had the alignment done right away after the install, same shop, no uneven tire wear.
