Now in your case it would definitely be a good investment.

Here is my take on camber kits. I decided on Kinetix since I don't race but do drive aggressively and enjoy trying to tame dragons, snakes and other country roads. The quality of the Kinetix is as good as the SPC I fondled at the local speed shop. They didn't have any SPL but I'd already discounted them. Nice Bling. I believe the SPC boasts greater adjustments in the rear and definitely have caster adjustments up front. I'm wondering if the SPC toe bolts will help in the rear?

I dropped the car with H&R springs. My before and after numbers were a bit shocking. I didn't have any original alignment numbers prior to installing the springs.

Before 1st alignment (L/R)
Front --> Camber -1.9/-1.8 Caster 6.0/5.3 Toe .09/.08
Rear --> Camber -2.7/-2.4 Toe .28/.26

After 1st alignment
Front --> Camber -1.9/-1.7 Caster 5.9/5.2 Toe .09/.08
Rear --> Camber -2.7/-2.4 Toe .19/.17

Alignment after installing Kinetix front control arms and rear camber and traction links

Front --> Camber -1.5/-1.4 Caster 6.4/5.6 Toe .07/.08
Rear --> Camber -2.4/-2.4 Toe .09/.16

For Reference Factory Settings are

Front (Min/Max/Nom)
Camber -1.41/0.08/-0.67
Caster 4.42/5.91/5.17
Toe 0.09/0.15/0.11
Rear
Camber -2.16/-1.17/-1.67
Toe 0.09/0.21/0.15

Why would you buy front and rear arms only to leave the camber in the rear @-2.4 your front was @-1.9 camber sound like you spent all that money for nothing.

Agreed.

I rarely track my car. I wanted my car a bit lower and my camber slightly aggressive over the stock settings so I can still get good tire wear. I'm happy with the front camber and curious about the lefts caster's setting. I would rather have my rear at -2.0 but I'm limited by the toe now.

I'm wondering if the SPC Toe bolt would help me in the rear?

Yes that would fix the problem.

Exactly.
With Swifts I think I'm about - 1.5-ish in the rear with SPL arms and still under
- 2 on the front without changing anything. Curious why these numbers were selected when both ends now have the ability to hit spec numbers.
