Default rear camber kit that creates negative camber?

is there a rear camber kit that creates more negative camber for the 2GS? i've been searching and all i can find is RCA's and kits that adjust your camber back into spec.

and if so where do you find one to purchase?

thanks in advance!

How much negative camber are you looking to get out of the rear? 6 deg or so for simple wheel clearance or something like the following (-18 in the rear)

And each of the companies above offer camber but with slightly different niches on how they accomplish it.

You could probably run these and lengthen them to add more camber.

probably aiming towards -4 to -6 max? i may be around a -3 right now i'm not exactly sure yet as i wondering what was available since there is a set of wheels i'm eyeballing that is pretty aggressive in the rear.

im at a 19x10.5 +0 right now with a 255/35/19 and it's poking a decent amount already. the wheel would be sitting around 18mm more aggressive in the rear.

Ah ok if your looking for camber to run a more aggressive wheel in the rear and clear the fender your going to need to run the Rear Upper Control Arm and Toe Links, The Lower Control Arm that Megan And Figs offer increase camber by extending the lower arm and don't really give you any more clearance.

I know that there are some people on here running the Studio, Nigisa and Ikeya arms.

I have installed them for afew people to and 1 guy I know is running a 19x11 +/- 0 with basically just a rolled fender.

The Megan one's are a bit different by the pic I see and the experience I have had with the figs arms, since Figs still has the stock camber adjustment on his arm but the rod end side isn't adjustable on the car and the Megan one's delete the stock adjustment and add a bung extender to the rod end site making it fully adjustable on the car...

First set I drove 1k+ then one tire popped(my fault) on the freeway so I changed both to good used tires
so I really can't give a great estimate, but as long as your toe is good your tires will last longer
TOE is everything when it comes to camber....I know a guy running -21 degrees of camber & his toe is dead on so his tires lasts long for -21
