Camber issue after wheel install

I have 2010 z with swift springs and recently went from stock 18s to rohana rc10s 20's. Went directly through Rohana and they knew the offset that would sit flush.

Default Camber issue after wheel install

I have 2010 z with swift springs and recently went from stock 18s to rohana rc10s 20's. Went directly through Rohana and they knew the offset that would sit flush. Not sure off the top of my head what it is. The fronts look great and after the rears were installed i noticed the tops are tucking in. I went for alignment hoping this would pull it back out and have them sit right but they had no luck. I attached the specs from the alignment. They recommended getting a rear camber kit. I am going to probably order SPC rear camber adjustable arms. Will this do the job or is there something else I should be looking for?

Do your self a favor, stay away from SPC... I'm lower on swifts as well, I went with the SPL rear camber arms and TOE bolts, also I went with the Z1 upper control arms. Another option is the SPL upper control arms but those were to expensive for me at the time. Good luck

Spc or spl rear camber arms and toe bolt is all you need to fix this while on swifts

thank you for the replies. I see spc on a good amount of websites. Who carries the spl and how much am I looking at for the rears?

IPP and THMotorsports have the best prices on SPL parts... I went with Kyle (IPP) since he replied faster but you can't go wrong with either.

That's the correct part, and they come as a set (pair). However, I'd contact them on the forum for a better price.

I've had the SPC rear kit & bolts on for a couple years, never has a problem.

I'm sure you'll be very happy with SPL's, top shelf product.

While nice, I hear the SPL front control arms are pretty noisy for street driving.

Your camber is not far off the specs, only -.02 off in the rear. OE max is -2.2 I would leave it alone.

Whats bothering me is the wheel butterflying in. Its stopping the wheel from looking flush to the fender up top. I had h&r spacers before and main goal for the wheels is obviously the look and not needing spacers to look flush. Went kamispeed, got my spacers springs and intake from them. Josh is always a great help there. Gonna install probably tues hopefully it gets me what I want
