Default Just bought an '04 Civic with aftermarket wheels--camber kit required to align?

Hi all,

I just bought an '04 Civic LX (4 door, 5 speed), and have discovered it can't be properly aligned without a camber kit. It has aftermarket wheels with a tire size of 205/40 R17. Particularly in the rear, they are wearing on the inside prematurely.

It was aligned yesterday but they weren't able to get the camber within spec. Can anyone recommend a relatively cheap but solid camber kit that will correct the problem? I'm not sure if parts for the front wheels, which are the same size, are also required.

I really appreciate any help since I'm new to these cars--eager to learn more. My experience is with MKIII ('86-'92) Toyota Supras.
