Is your roadster quattro or fwd? If quattro you may wish to consider a KMAC kit.

kmac kit is needed to bring your rear camber back to spec.

if you lower your car 1"+ you'll need atleast a half kit.

Tom: I think I'll pass on that one, but thanks for the idea!


There's nothing wrong with the suspension upgrades that you purchased.

When lowering the center of gravity on a quattro TT it throws the rear camber out.

A KMAC rear camber kit is just new adjustable bushings for the rear lower control arms.
Which allows the alignment shop to get your car back into spec. Meaning you won't have any uneven tire wear.

Check out TTstuff for their KMAC rear camber kit.
I'm not sure how much the H&R springs lower the car.
That's something you'll have to find out to determine if you need a half or whole rear camber kit.

I'm originally from NY... even in upper Westchester the roads are crappy!
