Re: washer camber kit...
Camber is the way your tires are "tilted" towards or away from the car...like so:
Lowering your car will have given you some negative camber. This can actually be beneficial to your handling, to a certain point, but will also give you uneven tire wear.

Yeah, I'd go with the washer trick in the rear. An ingall's camber kit up front will also be helpful, and then getting it re-aligned (maybe by someone with some experience with lowered cars would be good).
