I've just been wondering. Do I need camber kits for my rear wheels? I have no toe problems, but it's pretty obvious that wheels have camber. I even recently got an alignment and still they look so..."ugly." The front are nice and straight, it's just the back that looks...sorta like this / \ . No excessive tire wear on the insides, but the way the wheels sit, it looks like I have flat tires in the back! But if I'm not having toe problems, and my cars FWD, camber kits on the rear shouldn't matter than right?

We have quite a bit of negative camber in the rear stock,,,what numbers did your spec sheet say.
You can do the "bolt" camber kit. Gotta get an alignment afterward though.
Less camber in the back and more in the front can help handling,, to an extent of course
