camber kit advice

[bildo16]

this is from HONDATUNING and the link mike posted above:

Camber gets somewhat of a bad rap within the automotive industry. The typical premature wear pattern people notice on a lowered car is due to excessive inner tire wear. People naturally associate the leaning of the wheel with this inner wear. Thus, they determine the fix for the wear is to install a camber kit which will allow adjustment of the camber. If tire wear is your concern, know that camber alone is not to blame. The reality is that a bad toe setting will wear tires much faster than camber will.

Actually, camber can be a very good thing. To some extent, some negative camber will actually benefit the car. When a double-wishbone suspended car such as the '88-'00 Civics, '90-'01 Integras, Accords or TSXs, the camber angle always increases in a negative direction whenever the suspension moves up. It's what makes the car handle better in turns than the strut cars, which have negative camber but not nearly as much, generally speaking. It is a natural affect of cycling a double-wishbone suspension.

Cusco camber plates provide easy camber adjustment on strut suspension cars like DC5s and EP3s.

From hondatech article 1:

I'm looking for a camber kit for my DA teg, any recommendations

i stopped reading because i know the nature of these suspension types when lowered 1-2.5 inches

hondatech article 2:

I just bought the eibach prokit for my 91 civic si and have been looking at camber kits. I'm not really sure what to look for but I know I want a kit that works well for under 100. Any suggestions?

hondatech article 3:

But the reality is that most camber kits don't have the engineering and R&D that prevent problems like UCA clearance issues, slipping, squeaking, and all those things.

upper control arm clearance, my car doesnt have upper control arms!!!!!!!!!

article 4:

okay guys, last questions about suspension... first, what do you guys think about skunk2 shocks and springs? second, do i need to get a camber kit if i drop my car 2''? last; slotted, drilled, or slotted and drilled rotors? thanks for you help guys!

this was in the integra forum, same type of suspension.

article 5:

Current setup:
-450/457 Ground Control coils
-Koni Yellows
-GC Extended Top Hats
I'm dumped. Camber wear is pretty bad. I've heard that toe is the killer, with regular alignments I've been told that camber is not an issue. I'm about to purchase new tires and before I do, I'd like to get some opinions...

Heres a picture for reference:

SAME FUCKING TYPE OF SUSPENSION ONCE AGAIN!!!!!!!!!!!!

lol, i did read parts. they all pertained to the same type of suspension setup. honda had a great idea to actually progress from what they designed 20 years ago. nearly every statement you make deals with old technology. just because i dont work on old cars (like yourself) doesnt make me a retard. ive had a wide variety of experiences with all sorts of hondas (and some isuzu's) so thanks for schooling me with your ability to search HT and you fantastic copy and paste skills. maybe you should keep those outstanding skills on a site where people actually respect you.

Very well said.

You make it seem like you can run -3 degrees and have no difference in tire wear whatsoever. That sir, makes you look very ignorant. I understand you can run some camber as long as your toe is set right, and not see much wear. But some people want their tires to wear evenly and not worry about it.

I run negative right now, and next season on my next wheel setup, I will HAVE to run at least -3 all around to make it fit. But, you can't generalize that. I don't mind if it wears slightly quicker on the inside, but some do.
