unless running camber tops, sigma's are just too long like HUGE neg camber, i think xt130's are shorter (i may stand corrected)

if you want more in the gaurds use camber tops

if you want more out use lca (sigma i think are 20mm longer then standard and xt130 are about 10-15mm)

if you want to stop spinning out you will neeed more lock stock ke lock sucks , get a ajps lock spacer and if you still spin you must be reatard,

to increase track, xt130's for nice camber (increasing tack) sigma's for increasing track and with out camber tops STUPID! amounts of camber, but with camber tops cna run nice camber with bigger track at the front
long story short all got to do with track(i may stand corrected im no pro)

you'll get about 1.5 dr camber with the xt130 lcas. longer lca are useful for track when it scrubs on lock (works better than wheel spacers) and when your cambertops are maxed out and you want/need more

i like cambertops because to can alighn (sp?) both sides the same

nothing wrong with just xt130 lcas though
sigma give 3.5 or 4.5/5 dr depending what model you use (2 kinds i think)

yeah cause it spacers the whole wheel out 10mm no matter what angle the wheels turning at.
unlike spacers that if you exadurate it and put your wheel near 90 dr spacers will just move the wheel forward or backwards.

so sigma lcas do have a place. but not on any grip car.

first off - wrong section - this is a tech question... moved


Sigma lca's - yes thy give you -6 os so camber - completely usless mod if you do not have camber tops to adjust it to suit what you need.

Camber tops and decent suspension is what you need up front.

1. running sick camber for no real "race,drift, driving" purpose is laugh able

2. if you are needing to pull in the wheel to meet what you want - camber tops and run -1 or -2 camber
