I don't know what our colleague did on his F but for me that's freaking low for our roads...
Don't buy stupid camber bolts..
Buy 2 bolts 10mm wide and 70mm long with wider head or just buy washers and replace the upper bolt that holds the shocks to the knukles.. loosen the lower so you can push the top of the knukles in and tighten all the bolts.. MAKE SURE THAT THE 10mm BOLTS THAT YOU BUY ARE WITH MINIMUM 9.8 STRENGT!!
And that the nut is self securing! Not with plastic!!
I will do that today with my F and will show pfotos later..

As simple as that, great! And how do the mounts on the strut towers handle the change? Would that work in front too?

It works infront too, but you shortened the life of the top mount.. also the tire wear is uuughh..

Just buy simetric tyres and flip them over after one season, the outside will stay like new since it is in the air :D:D

Personally I would just use Camber bolts instead of removing material from the struts but it works :)

There was a guy in a Honda civic on track with us at Japfest this year with about the same amount of camber as that......he span out trying to follow me around the corner at speed and I beleive he span out a few more times after that.
