rear neg camber
you most likly had the camber befor the drop just never noticed it.
i didn't notice mine untill i dropped it.
why would you want to correct it? rear camber looks cool.
im not shure about the 2G but i know the 1G has -1 camber already.

I dont see how you would have got any more camber as it is a straight axles back there. I think it is your perception when looking at it. I would love to have alittle camber back there if I could.
The 1G and 2G have the same solid rear axles. OTG carries the -3 camber shims for the 1G but not for the 2G. I have a machinist making a little spacer for me just to get a little neg. camber.

HAHA.... keoki.... it is now time to bash.
i ordered a set of -3 camber shimms off him on 2/22 and he said he would mail them out that monday (2/25)
i sent him several emails threw several chanels with no responce.
i filled a paypal claim on 3/11 and waited another week befor raising it to a despute, he never responded to me or paypal, paypal rulled in my faver and recovered $0.64 from his account.
then on 3/24 i get en email from him saying how sorry he was for not mailing them out yet, and that he was mailing them out that day.
i still have not gotten anything from him.
this is not the first time ive had problems with him, i ordered a set of 15mm hub spacers about a year ago and had almost the same things happen.
i have still have the 15mm spacers if someone is interested.
anyway..............
i had 15x7+38 offset with 15mm spacers and it looked good, i think maybe 20mm could have been done with clearence.
but then i went to 16x8+15 offset and came down to a 10mm spacer and rubbed so bad i saw smoke comming off my tires. this was with s-tech springs.
so took the spacers out and it still rubbed a bit.
i took everything out of the back untill i got my tein SS.
i was able to ajust the rear up so i could but all my stuff in the back, this is why i wanted the -3 camber so i can lower it back down with out rubbing.
so what im saying is the amount of spacer you can run with out rubbing depends on your offset and your springs.
i wish EZBAKE would jump up and make his own spacers and camber shimms, ive never had a problem with anything from him.

MOST FWD cars today have negative rear camber. My Maxima did, and now my 2008 does too. It's very slight maybe 0.5-1.5 degrees negative camber. It's meant to help the car corner.
Plus it looks sick when you have low offset wheels and your car is dumped.

Screw me twice, shame on me.
Hope you get the product or your money back...
Here's a little suggestion; don't do business with this person again.
