hey guys i just did my alignment.
after my alignment specialist did the alignment he had to raise my car a bit more than i would like to, to make sure i dont wear out my tires too much. the reason is because my camber kit could not be corrected further than what i wanted.
ultimately i want to drop it another half an inch in the front but it will add to much camber and will wear out my tires prematurly per my alignment guy.
so is there anything else i can do to get more correction?
the kit i have now is the skunk2 pro kit for the civic ef. and it is maxed out.
my thought was, could i use like ingalls kit and add it to the skunk2?
are there any other options?

If the alignment guy doesnt think its safe then I would be listening to him, yea yea yea, its not camber that wears tyres its toe. But excessive camber does make a car twitchy at hell on a wet road. Been there done that, its horrible and dangerous
i want to know what i posted in the original post, which is what parts are there that i can get to make it even more adjustable.
See if this helps or maybe I'm not understanding this. LMK Thanks
949, what are your numbers? Just because camber isn't "in the green" on the aligner's screen, that doesn't mean you'll wear tires. If you're in the ballpark of -2.5deg to -3.0 deg, you might see evidence of camber wear over time if you don't rotate. If your measurements are more extreme than that... with the skunk2 arms adjusted all the way, then something isn't adding up. Those skunk2 arms are about as good as it gets for correcting front camber. DC Integra front knuckles can give some positive camber, but they throw the caster off.
If your pockets are deep enough, maybe these guys can help: http://arrautmotorsports.com/honda-products/
Like chicken strips on a motorcycle.
bingo! it works like a fun-o-meter too
