You need to do a lot more reading in the suspension forum. All this info is in there with a simple search.
Wheel adapters are probably a no go as they'll lower your offset too much. You'll never get the tire tucked back under the fender. Just get wheels that fit.
No camber bolts only camber plates in the front. Rear gets adjustable control arms for camber adjustment.

Thanks I was looking at the wheel tread but didn't find much there. But I guess I didn't think to look at the suspension tread. But thanks for the insight but redrilling the hub it's prob something I wouldn't do. I just purchased the vehicle and I don't want the dealer to give me **** and maybe in the future not cover something with the warranty.

I hear ya. I've been one of the lucky ones where the only thing my warranty did for me was cover my new hood scoop when it melted and deformed. Other than that, the warranty was a hidden veil that was there, but never really utilized except for the mandatory checks. Out of warranty and it has been a solid R56!
