I guess your coilovers dont have adjustable camber plates?
What brand/model coilovers did you get?

are you sure they are FULL coilovers? Because most all the coilovers offered for our cars have adjustable top mounts (i think the US Tein SS's are the only ones that dont)

Is the camber too much for you or uneven?

I believe only the front have the camber plates. the rears don't.
I have the blue EZ series which don't have them at all and just used a camber wedge kit on the rear. somewhat evened it out again.

I actually just realized that he never specified what end the camber issue was on.

so yeah, only ksport and I believe some BC's have rear camber adjustment.

Easiest solutions to adjsut rear camber:
Camber Bolts or Elongate the top strut hole.

any time you lower the car it changes the camber angle, requiring adjustable camber on the mounts. Unless you want to use shims but most people I've talked to don't recommend shims.
