Rear Camber Kit

Replacing these 305's is killing me. Can anyone recommend a rear camber adjustment kit? I'm not looking for full adjustability, just enough so that they don't wear as bad. Obviously the car is lowered. Thanks in advance!

Yes can go from one Dealer or Alignment shop to the next. Try all you want but OEM facts are.... there is only basic Toe - “directional” adjustment!

New car industry’s best kept secret. All to do with cost cutting and ever increasing speed of auto assembly lines.

No Camber adjustment which is essential to resolve costly, premature, excessive edge tire wear.

Brought about through day to day commuting encountering high cambered roads with excess passenger side edge wear. Wheel squat through load carrying or lowering. Fitting wide profile tires. Having NO “ongoing” adjustment capability to cater for curb knock damage.

We saw the need therefore to re instate from the 90’s once again Front Camber and Caster. Rear Camber (and extra Toe)
