Default 95 Prelude Adjustable Rear Camber Kit?

Hello everyone!

I would like some opinions on this. My car is stock ride height, the rims are not stock or stock size. I took it to an autoshop for an alignment, and they noticed that my rear right tire is wearing badly on the inside. They said I need an adjustable rear camber kit. Does this sound right? If it is, what kit would you reccomend that I purchase? I've looked around a little bit and there are a few different styles, so I am confused as to what to purchase.

Insight would be wonderful! Thank you!

Camber doesn't normally cause tire wear unless there is a lot of it, more than likely the people you took it to are dumbasses who don't know how to align a car or are trying to sell you something you don't need.

Did they give you a print out?

I'd get a second opinion, you'd have to either be lowered a LOT or something would have to be bent badly to cause enough inside wear from negative camber.

I took it to Brakes Plus. Here's the data they gave me for the rear:

Camber:
Left: -0.9
Right: -1.0
Toe:
Left: .05"
Right: .05"

Basically, what started all this was that my steering was pulling to the right pretty far, and I wanted to have it fixed, so they did an alignment. After the alignment, the car pulled to the left instead of right... I wasn't happy that they couldn't have it steer straight, and asked them how to fix it. They said that I should get new tires, and an adjustable rear camber kit, and then have it aligned again.

Sounds incorrect to me, but I don't really know!
