Default Negative Camber and Sport Springs

I was considering sport springs and noticed a few posts which talked about significant negative camber of the rear tires with sport spring applications. Is there a solution to this? Please let me know. Thanks.

Default a couple solutions: slotting rear control arms to allow adjustment (~$100) or...

adjustable rear control arms from Griffin Motorwerke (www.g-werke.com) (~$350.) There may be other solutions, but these are two I can think of off the top of my head.

Default K-Mac Bushings

I purchased these bushings (they have concentric bolt adjustments). The part # is 141226 and includes two sets of bushings. These replace the inside control arm bushings on a Quattro equipped car. The kit cost $269.00. I purchased it from SHOX.com when I bought my H&R springs during the last group buy. I had them installed at AMS in Costa Mesa, CA. I have put 5,000 miles on the car with little tire wear since the installation. The ride is a little firmer as the bushings are urethane.<ul><li><a href="http://www.k-mac.com.au">http://www.k-mac.com.au</a</li></ul>

Buy Eibachs and don't worry about it. Camber is only about 2 degrees vs. 4+ w/ others.
