I have the exact same setup as you with a perfect alignment. I am in need of a camber kit too as I have some pretty bad camber wear as well. The sportlines along with the Tokiko Blues adds a pretty severe drop to the front of the car especially on my v6.

:bash: you just dont get it do you?
you have several ppl (that know what there talking about) telling you that u dont need a camber kit yet u still say u do....ok fine go ahead and waste ur money smh.

I need help choosing an alignment kit for my accord to fix the camber, it is causing excessive uneven tire wear way too fast... Ive looked around but still kinda lost on what exactly it is that i need im dropped on tokiko blues and eibach sportlines... Thank You

Get an alignment and get your toe set to OEM specification (~ 0.00). Chances are the front camber will be fine and only the rear will have a little negative camber. If you feel that the negative camber is too much for your liking then get a kit...you have options between upper arm kits such as wicked tuning, spc, etc... or lower arm kits such as ingalls.

Generally toe being out of spec is what chews up tires rather quickly.

At the end of the day it's your car and your final decision; some ppl on here will try to shove their opinion down your throat. Keep in mind though that if you tires are wearing unevenly and you already got an alignment and had your toe set to OEM spec, then look at suspension bushings/balljoints/control arms etc to make sure nothing is worn out.

Threads like these need to be edited so that the relevant and useful info is maintained, and the garbage is tossed.

It's an alignment issue, no need to talk about camber with shocks/springs, regardless of whatever shock/spring combo you are running.

Unless you have a huge system in the car, rear camber is really a non-issue with a shock/spring setup.

True story. I'm running -3.6 in the rear with minimal wear! Granted I have flipped my tires once, but since my toe is straight it's fine.
