Camber kits are meh. I had a Eibach bolt snap on me. Went back to OEM.

Why do you want a camber kit?

To be honest, for what it is, the stock suspension is pretty fantastic. It's a front wheel drive car at the end of the day, though. Beyond aesthetics, which is a hit or a miss and based on really opinion, there's really not much point. In my opinion, camber is best kept for the drift car. That car isn't gonna ever end up being your Max. Sorry buddy.

Was looking into going with coilovers and just wanted more control on the general tire wear

Most coilovers have camber plates up front which will give you the adjustability you want.

There's enough body roll to make you think you're in a classic boat from the 70s.

Camber kits aren't to produce negative camber unless you're a ricer. It's a cheap way to mitigate it.

So much misguidance, poor assumptions and generally bad information in this thread.

Thanks for your input, but I disagree. My guidance is solid.

Lol.....just linking everybody to a thread with a bunch of random babble and trying to sell parts and services. It's a theoretical shock and spring thread, not a definitive suspension thread. I can appreciate the effort, but damn.....help the guys in THEIR threads, or bounce.
