Rear camber is on the high side for someone that doesn't need it for wheel fitment or track performance.

What kinda arms do you have that they can't get that into the -2 range? you don't want to be adjusting camber/toe with BOTH an adjustable arm AND eccentric bolts.

SPL actually recommends the opposite - installing a lockout kit to replace the factory eccentric bolts, which are prone to slippage, and using the adjustment on the arms for changing settings.

We eyeballed it at that for fitment and got the toe pretty low. I have Z1 rear camber arms with their lockout kit and I assume we can get it lower. Worst case I’ll raise the car up a little but. Would like 2.2-2.5 degrees of camber give me good tire wear?

I’m sort of on a budget and that is why I am trying to avoid getting toe arms but worst case I’ll end up getting them. Should i prioritize getting rear camber or rear toe lower? What would “ideal” toe be since I’ve read that it’s 0 but some sources say like .05 is better since the joints (not 100% sure it’s joints) will flex and while in motion zero the toe.

I’m by no means tracking the car. The most I do is maybe a hard pull or I’ll take a turn fast but not even close to my traction limitations.
