After doing a lot of research I think you might be right. I just bought the SPL front kit which offers between -2.5 and +1 degrees of adjustment. It is also one of the few kits that allows for caster adjustment as well. The SPC offers more positive adjustment with their use of spacers, but the install is more involved and I didn't like the reports of people having banging issues and the recurring slip and vdc light issues, even with the revised kits. I didn't find one negative comment on the SPLs and I researched camber kits for about 10 hours. Yes, I can be ****.

SPL V2s are getting hard to find since they are discontinued. I got mine from Concept Z Performance, they were great to deal with. Hope this helps.

That's the problem, positive camber adjustment. SPC claims to offer a range of -1.5 to +3.5 degrees when you use their spacers. SPL only offers +1 degree which should be enough for me. So if you plan on going super low and need max positive adjustment SPC might be necessary for you. I'm not a suspension guru by any means, but my guess is the lower you go the more negative camber you'll need to keep the tires from rubbing. Keep that in mind as well. Maybe someone more knowledgeable about the effects of slamming your car will chime in to educate us a little better.

yes please somebody help meeeee :] and blue dream what you are sayying is exactly what i was thinking in my head.

I'm only on stockies right now, just trying to do 1 thing at a time so my rims are going to be super tucked without spacers. Even when i get new wheels, im going to try and keep my specs as close to possible as i drive this car alot and dont want to buy new tires every 5k miles :P

So im guessing righ now SPC is gona have to be my choice and put up with the clunking noise :[ ?

Clunking is not necessarily going to happen, many people are running them without clunking. It seems that you have to be pretty low to have problems, I am dropped on coils and I recently got spc front camber and I have spc rear camber but I haven't yet installed the fronts so no telling yet personally..
