Rear camber is controlled by the rear control arms, not by the angle of the strut as it is in a macpherson strut setup.

If you're looking to alter the rear camber, you'll want to look for adjustable rear control arms not camber plates.

+1 on rear control arms.

There are 4 rear control arms, two on each side. All you need to get better camber adjustability is two rear control arms, one on each side.

Not sure what you mean by "aggressive", but yes the rear control arms will allow you to "correct" the negative camber that comes with lowering the car.

Get H-Sport 2 uppers and 2 lowers control arms. Give Justin a call and he will hooks you up. It's a easy DIY mods.
