This is my first real performance car so a lot of this stuff is new to me. I apologize in advance. My car is lowered with Eibach springs, got the Eibach sway bars and also the whiteline adjustable endlinks. Just got some VS Forged wheels put on 9"+30mm & 10"+40mm. I went with 245/40 up front and 285/35 in the back and couldn't be happier. I have a performance shop I go to for stuff I cant do or dont have the time to do. They are planning on doing an alignment on my car and before I put the new wheels on the tech couldn't get it to spec but was close (He also mentioned the thread on the inner tire was gone). Now with the wheels I feel the camber is much more noticeable. The shop guy said to order a caster camber kit or something so they can get it to where it should be. I have been looking all over for what to do and just thought I would ask because I feel I dont understand it much. Can I get away with ordering these from autozone? If you see the product specs in the notes it says rear toe camber. Or do I need to get the Megan Racing adjustable camber arm? If I do that I might as well go all out and get the whole Megan Racing set-up right? or is there some I should hold off on? Adjustable rear toe arm, adjustable camber arm, adjustable rear traction arm, and the adjustable rear trailing arm. Im still having traction issues but its much better with the 285s and so much quicker with the lighter wheels. Thanks everyone for the help! I will post pics of the new wheel and tire set up in the comment section!

First off nice ride, looks really clean. Now as far as that bolt from autozone, it looks like the stock bolt that is already being used to adjust the camber. I dont think that bolt will help because the problem being lowered is the rear camber bolt runs out of adjustment. The fix, for me anyway, was the megan racing adjustable camber arm. What that does is adjusts the top of the tire vs the stock bolt adjusting the bottom of the tire, which i suspect your tech cant get the camber to spec. im lowered somewhere in between 1.5-2 inches all the way around on coilovers and i only have that rear camber bar from megan racing, the other bars arent necessary imo. As far as traction is concerned, if your rwd and tuned like i am, it is a very hard thing to overcome lol. I use a 305/35/19 drag radial that without the help of the jb4, it spins and spins....and spins.
 
Thank you @2021GT2 I was thinking it was the stock bolt but wasnt sure. Whats the offset on the rears you have? I was thinking about going wider. The seller at discount tire told me I could swap them out in 30 days if I dont like them. Right now im at 285/35/19 and was thinking of going wider and putting on some Nitto NT555R2 tires on the rear. Just dont want it to stick out to much. It doesnt spin to bad because im over a mile high in elevation but it spins through first but before it would spin through 3rd lol

i have a street tire 19x9.5 275/35/19 +40 offset. now my drag radial i bought used with a 19x10 not sure the offset but worked great on stock suspension now i have to raise the rear an inch when i go to the track because it sticks out too much and rubs being lowered lol. if you check out my insta@2021gt2 you can check out my setup
 
Nice thanks. I think I will stick with the same size just go with the nitto radials. If you want to see me dust a built LS1 check out my latest post on my IG
 
Looks mean from the back. Can you post another, brighter, straight on from the side pic?
 
Yeah for sure. I was planning on going out and taking pics today with my wifes work camera. I've been learning how to use it lol @seeyainakia
