Rear camber adjusters needed for H&R drop?

Hey guys, I am going in to get an alignment next week but am wondering if I should get some rear camber adjuster arms? I have the H&R coilovers and it isnt dropped too much. I just dont want to wear the tires out quickly.

Also, I had H&R's installed and was told they were at the lowest setting but I still have a good two fingers between top of tire and fender? I read that these were exposed to drop it down really low??

The control arms are nice for a couple of reasons. Less flex and you can get creative with your alignment settings.

The kit includes 4 adjustable upper control arms for the rear of the car.

We sell these arms from Custom Performance Products.

Yes its pretty fast, about one hour, but if you`re eating eggs Benedict and sipping champagne it would be about 3 hours

It's those dam hookers causing all the problems. They are very distracting!
