    Dropped the G

    got the drop done..im very happy with the outcome..only thing i didnt get was the camber cause their prices were to much..so i wanted to ask yall if it is dangerous driving without camber for say a week or two?..and should i roll the fenders as a precaution..will take better pics later havent washed the G in a while

    Without correcting the rear camber you will wear away the inside of the tire, its not dangerous but it can be expensive. If you got the correct offset wheels you shouldn't rub with the camber corrected. Looks good

    I'd rather have the knowledge and ability to do it than the money to buy it already done.

    Looks good. You will be ok for couple of weeks, wont hurt anything. Just get that rear camber kit or you will pay more to have the rear tires replaced.

    my camber is -2.5 in the rear and I've replaced tires twice. unless you are autocrossing or throwing the car around corners I would correct the camber so you wont eat through tires.

    You should do some research and find out what camber is, or at least speak as if it wasn't an object.

    only thing i didnt get was the camber
    if it is dangerous driving without camber
    Not trying to be a dick, just helping you out so when you do talk about camber, you don't sound like a tool. Like the others have said, its not dangerous. You will only prematurely wear your tires.

    I'm dropped, and I haven't installed a camber kit. I really don't care if I chew through my tires. I work part time at a Goodyear and can get new tires when I need them. And since I dropped my car, I haven't worn through any tires in over 2 years.

    If you post stupid and incorrect information, you will get red nuggets.

    Every vehicle is different, some may need camber adjustment in the rear only, some in the front only, some both. Just depends on how each vehicle was built, or lived its life. As in accidents, vehicle damage, potholes, curbs, etc...

    My guess, it was most likely out of camber in the front BEFORE you lowered it.
