Camber kits for front+back.

FWIW: Camber is normal, it's for the car to perform better on turns. You want a LITTLE camber at least

What offset are your wheels? Correcting the camber might push them into your fenders. If you have a super high offset you might not have to worry about it.

word, and a little camber won't kill tires. Toe is the tire killer.

If he's running 20x9 and 20x11, he'll need a front and rear camber kit and rear toe arm to setup the car closer to his liking. The Lexus is tricky as the rear there is barely any toe adjustment and zero camber adjustment.
