Default Quick Question (Camber)

I have a rear camber kit I am going to install when I get the car back. My question is can I install the camber kit and have it alligned to -.5 deg with stock 245's and then mount the new 275's i got and the camber still be ok? or should i wait until I have the 275's mounted?

wait till your new tires are mounted

why would you run such minimal camber? Handling is going to suffer, and you are not going to gain any tire wear vs the factory recommended settings

toe kills the tires, not camber, unless its in the 3+ degree range. Either way you'll be good to go with the SPC kit, as it adjusts rear camber and toe

too many variables involved, not the leas of which is the offset of the wheel, etc

If you are at sock rideheight, 1 degree out back would do you well
