Rear Adjustable Camber Arm

I'm getting uneven wear on the inside of my rear tires and was looking at getting some good quality rear adjustable camber arms. I have found a few companies that make some but don't have any experience with their workmanship.
When I comes to aftermarket items I always go top quality as some company's are not as good a OEM and you only find out after using the product how crappy it is.

So far this is the one I'm leaning towards;
https://godspeedproject.com/acura-il..._store=default



Doesn't list any for 16+ ILX but wondering if the newest civic's would work?

Not sure about Buddy Club either;

I tend to stay away from buying on ebay when it comes to this stuff as people just say it will work in the ad but it will take some modding. Been screwed like this before!


And are there any other top brands that I missed???

You do know that the godspeed one you list is bearing instead of bushing, right?
Great for go-fast application but it will transfer much more noise into cabin. Personally, I'd probably go with their other model

edit: I do find their limiting statement disturbing
"FOR OFF ROAD USE ONLY! PARTS ARE INTENDED FOR RACING VEHICLES WHICH NEVER MAY BE USED ON A PUBLIC ROAD."

I didn't realize this, been out of the modding game for awhile. I want the same quality and comfort as OEM but one that I can adjust. The one you listed says it's doesn't fit 16+ I'll have to call them

Have you called to see if they can accommodate? If it as simple as replacing the bearing with a bushing...

I went with the Specialty Products Company "SPC" rear upper control arms. After the install I send this email to the company with what I noticed.
This is the one I went with "67466" -> http://www.spcalignment.com/index.ph...tion&pid=67466



email below;
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ ++++++++++++++++++++++++
I purchased the "67466 - ADJ CONTROL", and the install was preformed today. I'm writing in to let you guys know that this control arm seems to cater more towards lowering (shorter) -3 then +3 passed stock length. I can adjust nicely going shorter with lots of room but not much going longer. :/


I removed the stock arm from the car, laid it on my bench. Then adjusted your aftermarket arm to the length of the stock one starting the adjustment from zero putting the "long" bolt of the 3 that came off the car through both ends of each arm to make sure they aligned up and the end didn't move when turning the adjustment nut "32mm". I then adjusted the 32mm nut so that both gaps would be the same as directed in your instructions, and that your arm was the same length as stock.

Let me tell you your arm don't adjust much passed the stock length (longer) without going pass the 5/8 limit. I'm disappointed in the adjust ability on the +3 side. This was the entire reason I bought this as I drive Uber and have people in the back weighing the suspension down on most of the cars kms. Over time I have noticed my rear tires wearing in the inside as there's too much neg. camber. Also these cars have bad neg. camber to begin with without any extra weight.
