I did a "camber" search but that didn't help much. Anyhow I'm lowered on Eibach Pro-Kits and the front camber is fine but the back definitely gotten worse. Is the stock camber adjustable or do I need to get an aftermarket rear camber arm and bolt to put it back to stock to save as much tire as I can?
Thanks!
Thanks!
its adjustable, but not by much, purchase the eibach(spc) camber kit from ajusa.com for ~$150 shipped and install that before your alignment. It will get you back into spec quite easily

how much adjustable is it exactly? i got about 25k on my T1R's with the drop which is good so i don't think i need it that bad but it'd be nice to get close to 30k on the tires without the aftermarket camber kit
impossible to say, the camber and toe could be maxed out already, only an alignment shop will be able adjust it to the maximum positive values for the alignment in the rear
my car is slammed on stance coilovers and i bought a spc camber kit and never put it on, when i got the car aligned it was -2.7 rear and after it was -1.5 but it wouldnt go anymore than that....i dont see anything horrifying about -1.5 degrees of camber.

The middle is called NOMINAL and means as designed.
The wide oem in warranty spec is to allow for wear and tear of rubber bushings and frame and shock tower inward bending under turning loads................the more aggressive you drive and the longer you do it the more negative the camber becomes until you replace and straighten things.
