Post Need help from camber Kings

i recently went from a 275 30 20 in the rear to a 245 35 20 and added a spacer to get better fitment. but the outcome was onesided sorta lol. i had an alignment with the 275's but at stock height. after that i added tein basics and cranked them all the way down. the spacers and the 245's like i said. one side town out great as far as camber, but i figured i might have some toe so i was gonna get that checked and fixed. the other side (passenger) didnt come out so great. it was rubbing from what it looked to be more positve camber than the other side, which i didnt get. i took it to a shop to fix the toe on the driver side and leave the camber alone and then match the other side. i got a one sided out come again i think. the driver side was 2.5 and they fixed the toes they said and the driver side was 2.7. he said that was the close as he could get it because he didnt want to try to move it more and mess it all up. was i sucker for taking that and going with it or should it not be noticable. the reason im askin is because i think that it is noticable and on the way home there were slight rubbing not as much but still some. at first i thought that i might not have shaved my quarters the same but the passenger is already shaved a lil more than the driver side. so is it my car off,or 2.5 and 2.7 will show a diff or what else could it be

Slow down grasshopper... I read this but don't want to reread... you want more negative camber on the pass side?
If you aligned before doing the Coils, then you can forget about those specs...


Jack the rear up and adjust your camber on the lower control arm.....

edit: i read your post wrong the first time. but yeah the first alignment i knew is history after the drop i just figure the two sides would have been the same afterwards. so as far as jacking the car up and adjusting that arm. ive never tackled that could you elaborate on how that works. im just guessin before i try but would there be a bolt and nut, loosen the nut turn the bolt with the dial. which way do you turn the dial.
