Sways and endlinks are on the way. My entire rear suspension was replaced already.

nice i was going to say endlinks too OE are pretty weak wouldnt want any more troubles

i would ride with them on the middle settings, if you werent stretching tires id say all the way tight but if you took a corner when it was wet you might slide out bc of oversteer

got my alignment done... what a mess. it was worse than i thought. all squared away now though. the front spc upper arms are maxed out and I'm still at around -2 camber. but its not too terrible. i haven't had time to take a off ramp hard or a corner, but the overall feel is much better. the tech that drove it before he did the alignment said it was actually kind of scary to drive lol. i didn't find it that bad.. must of got used to it quickly..

nice did you do the height adjustment too? you can add more positive camber with the shim kit that comes with the SPC front arms

i would install the shim kit completely then dial the rest in with the arm that way you will still have some room to breath

as hampster said, the shim kit will add 2* positive camber. you can see how low I am in my avatar on 19s. I have the same spc kit with the 2* shim on, and the camber arms themselves are set right the in the middle. so, I still have roughly. +/- .8* to work with.
