Default lowering springs camber problem?

so i have a bad spring on my a4, so of course im not replacing it stock. i was looking around and have seen a few places mention that with the B5 A4 sport double wishbone self adjusting suspention, lowering springs cause some kind of issue with the camber. any thoughts? any solutions? is this a load of BS?

yeah it will cause negative camber better for handling but bad for the inside of the tire..but thats any car that gets lower. not just audis there is a solution though its adjustable camber arms about 500 for the kit

The backs are adjustable, just not the fronts...if you are just going springs, you should be able to atleast fix the back. What kind of shocks are you planning on getting?

i was on HnR race springs for a while. had the rears adjusted so that they barely met stock specs. the front end isn't too bad. you have to shift the frame to adjust in the front but you don't have enough camber to worry about doing that.
