Do I need a camber kit?



So here is a sheet denoting my most recent alignment done and by the looks of it, the camber on the right side of my car is off by quite a bit. This was January but my tires are still holding fine for the time being. my question is: Which camber kit should I get to straighten this out for now and for when I'm ready to lower the car ~1-2"? I was looking at getting the SPC front and rear kit, but I didn't want to buy something "blindly" only to find out it won't work for me in the future.

Thanks in advance.

can someone explain to me why one side would be able to be in spec vs the other side when all the parts are the same on both sides?

Those specs are actually pretty close to stock, and your tires should last a long time (as long as they can on a G anyway). -1.4 camber is slightly out of spec but still mild and camber doesn't effect wear nearly as much as toe. You should be able to take left hand corners just a bit quicker than right hand corners

I thought the same thing ^^ but with my front camber at -1.3 on both sides and my toe in spec, my front tires feathered badly starting around 8000 miles. They are at 12500 miles now and the noise has gotten so bad I'll be replacing them soon.

I bought the SPL kit and hope to not have any future issues.
