hey i know i this is an old thread but i just got new rims ... blades... so tight ... but umm im tired of seeing my tires leaning inward ... its just the rear thats doing it ... ive heard that lower control arms will also fix the problem is this true. if not so i can just buy a camber kit . but i have been thinking about getting the control arms ..

LCA would fix negative camber if the mounting locations/LCA is shorter than OEM. either do the washer trick or get a camber kit.

Why would you drop the front 2 inches and leave the back stock height on purpose?

ricer look ftw! not lol
I can't help you with installation as I don't know how. I would think the control arm camber kits are a lot better, I've seen pics of the ones you're talking about and I didn't even know where you can put them on the car
