    how many washers did you use for your rear camber adjustment

    My rear camber readings are -0.8 and 1.0 degrees how many washers do I need to put in? It said in the DIY at accordinglydone.com that you use one washer for a half a degree or use two washers for a 1.5 inch drop. Well my drop is about 1.25" (Tok Illumina kit). I’m afraid 2 washers would set me to positive on one of my wheels.

    What was your before and after readings on the rear? How many did you use? Also, since I'm only using 2 washers max on each side I don't have to replace the 1-3/4" (45mm) bolts for the rear UCA right?

    Thanks!

    you probly will want to keep some negative camber to increase handling slightly.

    i think one washer would do it. that would give you something around -0.5 degrees, which IMO would be a good balance between handling and tire wear.
    as long as you rotate your tires often, and get a good alignment, they'll last a very long time with only -0.5 degrees camber.

      I have Eibach Sportlines which gives me close to a 2" drop. I just got it alighned last week, I have 4 washers per bolt on the left and 3 on the right, and it's still -0.7 each side.
