Camber angle RL difference more than 5% after installed Dinan Spring

Anyone experience this after installed Dinan suspension spring?

I can't get my alignment right after installed the spring as alignment guy said they can't do anything to the camber angle difference.

Vehicle keep dragging to the left

Any advice will be greatly appreciated!!!


ALIGNMENT SPECS

REAR
camber
L= -1.50
R= -1.36

Front camber

R = -0.58

You can adjust the rear camber angle, as it is a multilink setup.

The front, however, is a McPherson Strut, and cannot be adjusted unless you get camber plates.

If you are interested, take a look at Ground Control, they make plates for the F22 (The Street F30 plates are a direct fit).

This is the first case of someone have trouble with their camber angle after the spring installation. I assume you also had the Dinan bump stops installed as well. I would venture to guess the springs are not seated properly in the housing, could even be upside down for that matter. E-mail Dinan, and send a couple photos with the tires off the car so they can offer up advice on the problem. Did you install yourself or the alignment shop install them?
