Default Camber Kit Needed on Lowered Z?

Ok guys I have a 2013 Z. I purchased the base model with the 18" wheels. It is now currently lowered on recently installed 19" rims. The Nissan Dealership aligned it for me, however, there is still a little bit of negative camber on my passenger's rear tire. I can see the outside part of the tire not sitting perpendicular to the ground. Will I need the camber kit installed? I have read that SPC or SPL are both good choices. For those of you that purchased it already, can you recommend certain vendors or post some links?

Here she is:




Thanks in advance for the help!

You can also go with the cheaper SPC camber control rods.

From what I heard SPL is better for quality in the long run. I just lowered my Z with Swift Springs and purchased the SPL Rear Camber Arms.

If you don't plan on tracking your car anytime soon. The SPC arms work great. They are heavier duty than people say. The pic in all the ads for the arms are not what you receive. They will work great for DD and spirited driving. They are cheaper in price compared to the SPL. Which are overkill unless you track the car every weekend.
