These Whiteline front lower control arms feature significant geometry gains with -1.0deg camber and +0.75deg caster improvements into these arms to optimise wheel alignments settings for track performance. Caster increases dynamic negative camber on the outside wheel whilst turning, offering more grip without introducing the tyre wear associated with static negative camber. Furthermore the increase in caster improves traction and increases the self-centring effect of the steering. Throw this altogether and the small change in additional caster improves the front-end grip and handling considerably. Whiteline's rear mounted bushing combines the superior mechanical properties of synthetic elastomer formulation with high quality sealed bearing assembly permitting smooth movement of the arm as the wheel moves up and down. Complemented by a front bushing utilizing an oversized heavy duty crush tube, resulting in dramatic improvements to steering precision, most not iceably reduced 'toe-change' during hard cornering, creating impressive turn-in ability! The more positive location of the arm through the range of suspension movement and gains in alignment geometry ensures the car feels more responsive and engaging at turn-in, mid corner and corner exit.

Enhance your Honda Civic's handling and cornering capabilities with the Whiteline KTA288 front lower control arm kit. Designed specifically for 2016 and 2017 Honda Civics, these control arms deliver significant geometry improvements, including a -1.0 degree camber and +0.75 degree caster adjustment to optimize wheel alignment settings for track performance. The increased caster not only enhances steering response but also promotes more grip during dynamic turns by increasing the negative camber on the outside wheel without the excessive tire wear associated with static negative camber. This design results in improved traction, better steering feel, and increased self-centering, which collectively elevate the vehicle’s overall stability and responsiveness during aggressive driving maneuvers. The control arms feature a rear mounted bushing crafted from high-quality synthetic elastomer and sealed bearing assembly, ensuring smooth wheel movement and durability under demanding conditions. Additionally, an oversized heavy-duty front bushing with a crush tube significantly reduces 'toe-change' during hard cornering, sharpening turn-in and mid-corner responsiveness. These enhancements contribute to a more engaging and predictable driving experience, especially during spirited driving or track days. The kit includes two control arms, engineered with bonded strength for high load applications, and supplied with extreme pressure molybdenum disulphide (LM) based grease for extended service life. With an adjustable design, these control arms help rectify or optimize wheel alignment, ensuring maximum tire contact and stability across various driving conditions. Constructed by Whiteline with precision engineering, the KTA288 kit is a reliable upgrade for enthusiasts seeking improved handling and steering precision in their Honda Civic.
