From: you will never steal my, car, usa
the guy i bought my 96 ex from put aftermarket camber kit on the rear and definetely did not adjust them right. the car squats with the top of the wheel further in on the car and the bottom out more very noticeable difference. i tried adjusting them today and they just wont move at all. any help is appreciated before all the tread wears off my rear tires thanks.
wearing off tire is toe issue, not the camber. but you must set camber to right angle before to get the car aligned othrewise the toe will be off.
for adjusting the camber, is the kit rusted? or full of dirt on the thread? if so, get WD40 and spray all over on the camberkit's nut and thread. the more you spary it is better. then use a wrench and turn the nut. You gotta think though, if you are turning one of the nut toward you, then you have to turn the wrench CLOCKWISE to get it lose. Yeah you have to turn in opposite direction.
If you are losening a nut away from you (toward the car), then you turn the nut in counter-clockwise direction.
good luck!

what kinda camber kit is it?
cheap longer bolts or cheap arm or good camber arm..
also before ya get the camber set and aligned keep an eye on the inner fender lip!
with my old wheels and drop i had to roll my inner fender lips alittle for them not to cut my tires, tho with my new drop being lower i dont have my fender lips rolled in the rear as much as i need to run camber in factory specs.
but it looks close enough for right now.
