wow... doesn't look so good. It almost needs a new LCA. Another possibility is to mod the inner LCA (closest to the subframe bolt). If I had firm suspension, I'd like to get to closest to zero as possible (with a negative bias).

Does anyone know if any camber kits are being created?

The companies I've contacted (SPC and Megan Racing) keep telling me the same thing ... That they are working on it. Seems to me like they aren't in any rush to help us out.

I was on Ebay and saw SPC had one for our car (rear) for sale. At least it advertised to fit the 2013 GS. I figured based on your inside knowledge from these threads that it was a misprint. Anyhow, I want a kit of course, but I am worried that as I bring the camber up to -1.5 degrees or so that I might get some rub/scraping action and have to roll fenders. That would **** me off. Hopefully we can find out soon enough.

Using a camber kit to increase camber will definetly move the tire closer to the inner fender.

I am getting tires and wheels installed tomorrow, I am thinking about having them roll the back fenders while they are at it.

So I guess my mathematical presentation is confusing. Bringing from -2.5-->-1.5 is an increase #'s wise. I did not mean increasing the camber making it more "negative," my bad.
