Default suspension issue

I put my new tein coil overs with pillowball mounts on today, i didnt adjust the hight on them, i just left them how tein sent them. I put it all back together and on the ground and i noticed that all my wheels, not so much the front, but all my wheels angle out a little bit at the bottom, not a drastic amount, i can get a pic in u want. I like where the hight is but i dont know whether or not it is ok to leave at that hight. I know i can get a camber kit but thats out of the question right now. 3 day weekend = car needs to be ok for school on tuesday. I took it for a test drive and it rode well. I also got megan racing strut tower bars

When you lower it, the wheels will tilt some if you dont get a camber kit also.. Both of mine tilt in a little bit.. I lowered mine 2.6" and I notice it..

you only got the tilt because you lowered it that much. I think if you stay under 2" you should be all set and wont need a camber kit.

Ya.. It will wear your tires differently so you will have to watch that... But it doesnt hurt anything.. Im actually surprised that you see a tilt with it lowered only that much...
