Default question about camber kit for my 02 accord

Okay, my tread is getting horrible. I bought new tires about 6 months ago and I was too lazy to get an alignment. I just got an alignment to fix that problem but my toe ratings are no where close to zero. The highest camber toe is -2.7. Will I need a camber kit to better fix this problem of wearing my tires? Check out this picture, I plan on getting this camber kit. What do u guys think? http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors...QrdZ1

Camber toe is -2.7? lol

Camber and toe are two different settings. How low are you? Unless you're an inch off the ground, a good alignment cures most wear issues. You just need to make sure that the shop puts toe at 0 not at "oem spec".

wait, the -2.0 was before alignment. This is the actual spec---> FRONT cross camber 1.2 degree Total toe 0.05 degree

Camber Toe Cross camber 1.2 degree and total toe is 0.21 degree

From these results, am I good? I dropped my car about 3 inches from stock settings. Will I still need a camber kit? Look at the picture from the website I gave on the website up top on the first post. Is that what I need? I'm not quite sure the difference between camber and toe.
