I'm going to be getting a custom alignment done soon and was wondering if it would be worthwhile to get camber bolts for the rear (since stock is not adjustable). My suspension mods are pretty light, just jdm pink springs and a front strut tower bar (I also have cowl stays/fender braces sitting in a corner).

I was thinking close to max negative camber for the front (around -1.3 or something), zero toe all around.... but what specs would be optimal for the rear with camber bolts? Last time I got an alignment the rear camber specs were -1.7 (left) and -1.2 (right)

it would be good to even them out around -1.0. make for much better rotation then stock.

You don't necessarily need rear camber bolts to adjust the rear camber, but it makes things a whole lot easier. Some people can even out the rear camber by just loosening both strut bolts and pulling/yanking to get max/min camber. The sides more or less will match up around -1.3 degrees give or take a few tenths.

Of course, you'd save a lot of headache by spending the $30 or so for the camber bolts and the alignment tech will be able to dial in exactly to what you want. I'm running -1.5 front and -1.0 rear camber using aftermarket bolts at the back.

yes, get them and tell the tech about them. OEM rear camber is not adjustable, and will be -2.0 and up, which leads to understeer city.
