camber is looks crazy - you eat through rubber quicker - but camber looks the shit!

you are talking of the REAR camber - which can be adjusted alittle by inserting + 1 or more washers DIY style into the upper control arm. This pivots the upper part of each rear wheel away from the body, giving you + camber.

The front can be adjusted too, with quite abit of new hardware ( $$ ).

depending on the size of the rims though you will get some camber scrub hehe.. especially if it is as dumped as u say it is...

i got a crx thats lowered on 17's. The front wheels are more cambered then the back. i thought my tyres were new untill i went under the car and seen the inside had been worn out heaps. I was told that if i didnt get a camber kit for the front id be changing tyres every 3-4 months. Also that camber kits cost heaps more for honda's then other cars. Looking at 350 to 400 bucks to get it done

Rear camber can be fixed quite easy, but if your not sure what u are doing best to take it to a suspensions shop.

Lowering the coilovers to the max isn’t going to help with the camber, it maybe an advantage to have some negative camber. But this will increase tyre wear, and unless your car is a track car you wouldn’t want large amounts of it. How many degrees of negative camber do have at the moment?
