Camber Kits + alignment with Eibach HELP!
Im running Eibachs with out the camber ot toe adjustment kit- Have no idea what the specs were on my alignment- but they were within factory accepted range-
So far over 5K miles on my set up and Im showing no excessive wear on any part of the tires

I needed rear camber arms, toe bolts and front upper control arms to get everything into factory spec.
If you buy the SPC/Eibach rear camber arms, the toe bolts will come with the kit. May as well install them.

Running Eibach Sportlines without the camber/toe kits. I'm sitting pretty low. Just had an alignment done 2 weeks ago. Couldn't adjust camber but toe only needed a slight adjustment. Unfortunately San Diego roads are pot hole ridden so any slight bump could knock you out of alignment quickly.
I wouldn't worry about the camber in the front. Our front tires don't wear very quickly so just have them get the toe to zero. I'd just get the Eibach rear camber kit (same as the SPC but less expensive) which will come with the toe bolts if they're needed. I was able to get my toe specs in the rear almost to zero with the Pro-Kit with the OEM toe adjustment. Our cars eat the rear tires quicker than the front so this is where I'd focus my $$$ to save $$$.
Thanks! i just ordered the Rear Camber kit with Bolt. 63$ each, thanks to tirerack whole sale prices
for now i am going to ignore the front tires until decide what to do. Once i install the rear camber kit and get everything aligned especially correct the toe issue, i will post another picture of the specs.

The rear camber arms normally come in pairs. Eibach's part number should be 5.72260K. Sounds like you got a pretty good deal.
Check out SPL Parts as well for alignment kits. I already have the Eiback Pro Kit installed in the rear and I just got some G37 coupe 19s installed yesterday. It turns out however that I couldn't get both the toe and the camber in spec without throwing one of the other out of spec. My mechanic referred me to SPL parts and they sell an adjustable lower control arm for the 07+ sedans which will allow for a wider range of toe adjustments vs the bolt (mine's maxed out). Pricey though but I'll probably get these sooner or later.

My drop is about an inch lower than Eibach and my toe was easy to get in spec w/ the SPC toe bolt kit.
If you have only the OEM bolt slot then yes, it' easy to max out the adjustment and still be out of spec there.
I'm also blnewt on this, there's no way they can't adjust things back to spec, with an Eibach drop, on a properly installed aftermarket toe/camber kit.
