Question for those with real knowledge:
From my understanding, Tein coil-overs come with a camber adjustment for the front, but whats the deal with the back?

If you want adjustability, you need to get camber kits for the rear, like the Hotchkis units. The front uses struts, so the camber may be adjusted via plates, but the rears are shocks, and therefore do not affect the camber of the rear tires.

iC... so therefore, camber kits are needed with coil-over kits (specifically on the rear). Do the fronts still need them too? or since u've said they're struts they can already be adjusted...

Another topic of debate:

Which front top struts & which rear struts are Top of the Line for Performance?

Hotchkis, DC, Tanabe, Greddy, etc..?

There's an adjustment cam for the rear, the camber kit isn't necessary unless you want to do something unusual. I had my car re-aligned on Saturday and had no issues getting -1.625 degree of camber (to go along with the -1.75 degree fronts) with the OEM adjustments.

And this is with only Tein SS coil-overs with nothing else?
