I can't set the rear at the lowest setting because it sets the camber too extreme. Just wondering if there is a way to adjust the camber, or lower the rear some more without if affecting the camber.

I don't want the rear at the lowest setting because I need it higher than the front for autox purposes. But right now I'm set at half-height on the coilover and still seeing a minor camber issue.
 
When ever you make changes to the ride height it will cause the camber & toe to change. Same happens on the front as well as rear. There are aftermarket options available to add camber adjustments to the suspension. Once you have your ride heights sorted out you'll need an alignment. Also lowering negatively messes with the suspension geometries and will reduce the handling characteristics. The lower you go the worse it gets.

The front is adjusted to the lowest setting, and the camber and toe end are still spot on. I'm only having issues with the rear.
 
The camber and toe most definitely changed if you changed the ride height. The car may still drive straight but the toe may be out of spec now.
 
Yeah just get washers and some good bolts to push the tops of the rear suspension out. STM sells a kit that is basically 10 or so washers and 4 grade 8 M8 or m10 bolts that are longer then stock. That's what I used on my car. Works great and fixed my camber issue. Definitely get an alignment after you've messed with the suspension.
