Default megan camber kit

I wanted to get the camber arm and the toe kit to eliminate tire/camber wear. I wanted to get the camber arm(pic one) but they also have camber kit(pic two). Which one is needed cause I see two different ones. Thanks

Depending on how much you take out of the neg. camber you may not need the toe kit because the factory adjuster be able to compensate. Check with Lexus alignment guy and discuss how far you can go before you need the toe kit. You might be pleasently surprised. I'm doing my front at about -0.2 with a 0.05 total toe and the rear at -0.2 and toe as close to 0.00 as possible. A toe of 0.05 works fine from what my Lexus guy says. Zeroing out the camber will cause the tires to roll on cornering so some neg. is necessary. I already have the front camber kit but not the rear yet so I'm gunna take the rear tire off and see what the top arm looks like, I believe that it is the first pic.

You shouldnt need the right pic. The stock Lexus arms that the second pic would replace are adjustable enough. Just buy the left pic in order to adjust the camber. If I am wrong then I will let you know in a few days when I go to get my alignment done. I just lowered with BC coils and the left pic camber arms.
