    Can the rear wheels be cambered?

    I finally lowered my mirage with auto dynasty springs (1.5" drop) on 195/45/R16 wheels. Well... I'm getting a recent amount of wheel rub in the back when going over dips in the road or hitting corners at high speeds. So I'm thinking I just may need to do slight negative camber on the back. Is it possible?

    Unfortunately the suspension system doesn't allow it only the front

    Damn Damn Damn. Would you happen to know any brand of 1.5" lowering springs that are really stiff? For the rear. (other than auto dynasty)

    You're also going to get a LOT of toe-in at the rear from lowering, which is going to increase tire wear.

    Not to worried about tire wear. Just rather have a stiffer springs at the rear.

    Only way you will be getting rear camber on the torsion bar rear setup is by cutting and welding. Which is pretty stupid and dangerous, and illegal (well at least here)

    No I wouldn't be altering that. Is there any rubber lifters that'll work?
