Rear camber adjustment.
Hello,
With in the next month or more than likely in December I will be purchasing my suspension set up. I'm still recovering from my 1800 spending spree on my new Work CR Kai's, tires, and lugs. I've been reading around and I don't mind spending upwards of 1500 for my set up. I am however concerned about my rear camber. I've been looking for a reasonably price set up with rear camber plates/arms and so far no luck! To safely run the set up I plan I'll need -3* in the rear considering I'm running a 245/40/17s. I already have my rear fenders rolled so just need to make the final step and lower my baby.
Anyway, I'm just curious who makes a quality rear camber adjustment kit or what suspension set up comes with the rear adjustable plates. I had my eye on the K-Sport or the D2 set up and was going to spend the extra 500 on an OEM lip and wing but it seems with what I want and is most certainly my cup of tea will run me around 1500. I did a little research tonight but I basically just found front camber kits, rear spacers, and the T1R bump stops.
Any help? And/or suggestions?
Thanks!

I'm wondering if there is a need for a camber kit. I have -2.3 on my rears, and my alignment guy says he can go some more. I thought the S2000 suspension was already fully adjustable?

3 Degrees of negative camber and rolling fenders and it still rubs mean your wheels don't fit, or you are running a very low ride height.
It's going to kill tires with that compromised alignment.

Well, this issue is this then. 245/40/17s lowered on +44 offset in the rear. Even with rolled fenders will it still rub? It will be lowered a bit, nothing so extreme that I can not get over speed bumps. See where I'm coming from? If there is a way to change camber with stock components then it's something I over looked. I just purchased my S two months ago, This car is nothing like my past Honda's. Bare with me!

I've got 265/35 18's on 18x9 +63mm offset rear wheels and don't rub at all. That's also lowered 1-1.5 inches.
I'm also nowhere close to 3 degrees of negative camber. Different offset wheels really make the difference when it comes to running a wacked out street alignment to make wheels fit the car.

The 44 offset is the problem. You need close to 20 more mm offset - problem solved.

With double A-arms in the rear it is impossble to have a camber plate. The only way you can adjusd the camber outside of the stock a-arms would be to buy adjustable a-arms.
The stock a-arms will let you go close to -4... ive run -3.5 and run -3 now. You will be fine.
Unless you want to run a 265+ series tire on there... then i would just suggest getting a less aggressive offset, or not lowering.
