SPC rear camber kits now out

I saw this on DriveAccord (very similar suspension setup to the TSX).

SPC has now released rear camber, rear toe, and rear setback adjustable arms. Rear camber arm alone will do +/- 1 deg. camber; all three together will do +/- 3 deg. camber.

Here's the part numbers

Camber: 67545
Toe: 67555
Setback: 67550
All three: 67540

I found some on ebay, I'd like to see what those with Eibachs and Progress springs only (on stock struts) would achieve with this setup....

Hey Viper, Did you ever intall any of these? I have seen lots of discussion about this but it seems like a lot of the guys don't care about performance as much as they do looks. I just installed my Euro Sport Suspension, dropping the car ~1" then went for an alignment. The rear camber is now @ 2.4 on the left and 2.2 on the right. The techs at the shop really feel that I should install the SPC camber kit as the camber now exceeds settings done on track cars. They also claim front wheel drive cars handle better with less rear camber than rear wheel drive cars and they are certain that I'll have excessive ware on the inside edge of the tires. I know most everyone on this forum says no need! What is your experience with this; what is your camber, how many miles have you ran with it and how are your tires warring?

BTW, Custom Alingment in the SF Bay Area does great high end work and they really like SPC products.

I found the SPC camber kit 67540 for $245 at http://www.corsportusa.com/store/catalog/product_info.php?products_id=4423

Depending on what camber kit you install it includes suspesion linkage that allows the camber, toe and caster to be adjustable. When you lower the car the alignment changes. On the rear of the TSX Toe is the only factory adjustment that can be made without adding an after market kit. The more you lower the car the more likely you'll need to add a kit. I just lowered my car ~1" and it doesn't look like the kit will be needed.

OK just put on my wheels today, got wheel aligned they obviously tried to correct my camber... which means no more negative, which means they didn't lower it enough for my liking... with 20 inch would you think i'll need the assist of a camber kit so i can lower it a bit more to make sure it won't rub the guard, cause right now it's kind of sitting straight almost with a slight negative and it's lined up with the wheel arch guard... right on the edge.

you can either lower it or buy a camber kit and push it out another degree.. I know for me i was at -3 degrees camber with a 1 inch drop.. so I can only image what I'm at now slammed.. I bought a 1 degree camber arm. and I plan on correcting it but iw as looking at the wheel clearance and i'm not sure if my 19 +32's will clear if I push it out any farther like your case..

Camber isn't what kills tires, toe is
