My rear arms are solid and I can't adjust them. I have too much negative camber. Camber bolts gives too little effect as I need to loose about 2 degs. Any thoughts on how to correct this?

Do you use BC coilovers?

I have the same thing, with the drop comes alot of negative camber. hell I have so much negative camber I had to put wheel spacers to stop my tyres rubbing the springs.

Apparently BC has optional ST205 camber tophats for the rear that you can order.

I was the first in the UK (maybe in the world) to have fitted the BC coilovers and wrote a review on them. smile.gif
I never had the problem with wheel rub with my rims and also at the time they never came with adjustable top mounts.
However even now with adjustable top mounts in the rear, the only way you can move them out enough to correct the camber is by cutting into hole at the top more for the strut to move out enough because the circular hole is too small.
