SPC Performance Alignment Camber Shim
SPC Performance Alignment Camber Shims: Precision From the Alignment Leaders
When camber angles drift out of spec — whether from a lift kit, a lowering spring, or simply accumulated wear — few fixes are as elegantly simple as a well-engineered camber shim. SPC Performance (Specialty Products Company) has been refining that solution since it pioneered the wheel alignment parts business, and its alignment camber shim lineup reflects decades of application-specific engineering that sets it apart from generic alternatives.
A Legacy Built on Alignment Expertise
SPC Performance was founded in 1971 and quickly became the go-to source for professional alignment shops worldwide. Today, Specialty Products Company is recognized as the world leader in the development, manufacturing, and sales of wheel alignment parts, with the SPC Performance brand specifically targeting off-road, track, and enthusiast markets. That professional-grade pedigree carries directly into every camber shim the company produces.
What Makes SPC Camber Shims Stand Out
SPC Performance doesn't take a one-size-fits-all approach to camber correction. Their shim catalog spans multiple product families, materials, and correction ranges — each tuned for the realities of specific platforms and use cases.
- EZ Shim (Dual Angle / Full Contact): A patented Full Contact Dual Angle Shim design that corrects both toe and camber with a single shim, available in four sizes to cover many rear-shimable FWD vehicles.
- Duo-Fit Camber/Caster Shims: Available with tapered slots and in multiple thicknesses , these shims serve shops that need flexible, multi-vehicle coverage in a single part number.
- Vehicle-Specific Aluminum Shims: For platforms like the Hyundai Genesis, Equus, and Kia K900, SPC offers full-contact aluminum shims capable of adjusting front camber by up to ±1.25°, built from aluminum to handle both daily driving and track demands.
- High-Strength Nylon Hub Shims: These shims install directly between the hub and steering knuckle for precise camber changes, with a caliper shim included for added convenience. Models like the SPC 26012 cover a wide range of Jeep and Ford applications.
Multiple Thicknesses, One Trusted Brand
Front and rear-wheel alignment directly impacts tire tread wear, and SPC Performance camber shims are available in different styles and thicknesses to correct a wide variety of alignment problems. Common thickness options range from 0.016 in. to 0.188 in., allowing technicians and enthusiasts to dial in corrections with genuine precision rather than relying on approximate fits.
For vehicles where both toe and camber need simultaneous attention, SPC's combination shim kits simplify the job considerably. One 18-piece kit, for example, includes shims that adjust toe from -0.5° to +0.5° in 1/10° increments and camber from ±0.25° to ±1.0° in 1/4° increments — stackable for greater range — to fix tire wear issues and restore straight tracking.
Race-Proven Quality for Street and Track
SPC started by supplying alignment shops with parts and tools, and it was a natural progression for those components to find their way into performance and racing applications as lowered and lifted vehicles increasingly demanded adjustments beyond factory component capabilities. SPC is proud to hold both ISO 9001 and IATF 16949 certifications , quality standards that ensure every shim leaving the facility meets rigorous dimensional and material tolerances. Whether you're restoring OEM alignment after a suspension swap or dialing in negative camber for autocross, SPC Performance camber shims deliver the consistent, repeatable results that alignment professionals and enthusiasts have trusted for over fifty years.
