Default How to tilt.....

the top of the right front tire in?? I have a 1G eclipse GS, and want the right front tire tilted in.I purchased a special bolt that you can put in there, but something with suspension does not allow my tire to tilt at all. Any ideas??

well the bolt thing you have might be the camber adjustment. Maybe your not doing something right. But they should look something like these

well you usually only need it if you start to lower your car too much and you will end up with some neg. camber, so youd need the kit to adjust it. I usually say anything more than about a 1.5-1.2" drop then you start to need it.

I should be alright then, I figure. Im looking at like 1.25-1.75max. Though the rear end on my 3G currently looks sorta toe out...

That is what the bolts look like. What could I be doing wrong? Following the directions, but will only let me tire tilt in very very minimul. Does lowering the car have anything to do with this?? I am not lowering anything.
