Default How much can I lower my rear and still be in spec for camber

My rear is .2 degrees within camber, how much can I lower it and not change it more than that .2 degrees? Right now it's -1.5, I want it at -1.7 (factory spec is -1.3 to -1.7)I swear I saw an answer to this before, but I can't find it...

Thanks!

Default Barely none....>

Less than 1/4 inch is barely worth the time to do it. The Actual spec is broader than that because there's no adjustment. That doesn't make it right...<ul><li><a href="https://forums.audiworld.com/tt/msgs/1101053.phtml">Here's why...</a></li></ul>

Default From your numbers I extrapolated that for each .14" you lower...

it changed the camber by .1 degrees, so if I figured lowering it .28" is fine, so I did .25". Definitely aa aesthetic difference. Looks mucho bettero.
