You need to get a rear camber kit and toe bolts soon. When I dropped mine on swifts without toe bolts and got my alignment done they could only get the toe .15 and .18 in the rear. This resulted in scrubbing my brand new rear tires off in just 5K miles. I just intalled my toe bolts this weekend and got my alignment done today to get the toe near 0 as possible.

Your right rear is close at .08 which is minimal factory spec but running a lot of camber. Your left rear I would be concerned about scrubbing the tire limiting tread life.

yeah I probably will look into it. I have a track day up at NJMP in Millville NJ on the 14th but shortly after that. I'm guess almost another 1G after parts and labor or at least more than 500 but less than 1g. funny when it comes to the car 1K or 2k is like eh yeah, more money into the car. I'f I'm spending it on something else I'm like, WTF that crap is expensive....
