I just noticed in your signature that you have an SS kit. I want it lol. I need NRCA in the front really badly. Camberwise im at like -3 in the front (NOT ENOUGH AT ALL) and about -6 in the rear (ALSO NOT ENOUGH)
Im running 225/40/18 in the rear and 215/40/18 in the front. They are all crappy nankang NSII because they stretch well and I drive like a grandma so I never worry about taking corners haha.

Yea, I have the SS kit (front and rear). Maybe it's me, but i was able to get additonal negative camber after installing the kit. I was maxed out at -3 front but currently have about -3.8 front and -4.5 rear. As for the NSII, i run those in the front, downsides: low treadwear and they're a bit noisy, but they do have a nice stretch. lol...I drive the same way; but it's sorta necessary for being low.
When SS Kits/RCAs are installed you're supposed to raise the coilover mount the same thickness as the RCA to compensate for this, so you end up at the same height as pre-RCA.

if you use the SS kit to lower the car further instead of correcting the suspension geometry you will obviously gain negative camber at the expense of further hurting the steering/bump steer/tramline effect as you're mucking up your roll center.
