Suspension Setup, need approval
With 18's, would it be okay to order the H-Sport Springs and Alta Rear Control Arms?
With the Alta's i can adjust/correct my camber on an 02 MCS right?
They are compatible together?
Are both products good quality?

Both the Alta control arms and the H-Sport springs are great products. And they should work fine in conjunction with each other...
My only concern would be rubbing issues with dropping the car and running 18s...

thebillsman: do you have any type of front camber plate? adding (negative) front camber is where you will see a significant performance increase. i'm lowered on coilovers w/ 18" street wheels and 215/35/18 rubber w/ no problems.
i dont know if i would only do it by eye! My front camber is .3 off from side to side and i can feel a diference when i turn. I cant remember exact whan me a friend did to ours (of course the last time i told be what we did, i was way off (actually i told them more about what we did to get camber than i did about toe, which was what i was talking about)). Search the net for home brew camber or something. you will need something that will sit on the lip of the rim, and something to find the angle. Home depot sould have something on the cheap. I "think" we used a large steel protractor with a swing arm that had a level in it maybe..., made sure the arm was dead verticle via the level and tightened a nut down, and read the degrees on the arm. Im pretty sure that is how you do it. You are also going to want to make absolutly sure you car is level at the time, other wise your measurments are going to mean anything! hope this helps, but i sure wouldnt eye ball it

I have the h-sport arms, and I'm not sure about the quality. The nut closest to the center of the car on both arms keeps coming loose, even with blue locktite on it. Thankfully, the other nut (most responsible for the camber setting) stays put.
