there are two kinds of camber correction kits. the camber bolts which correct up to 1.75 or so and camber plates that correct up to 3. and they are made for the front only

What is the price ranges for both? Should I get the camber plates instead? Because I do not think it worth paying for two bolts that I can go to any hardware store to get.

the bolts don't cost much. i don't think they should be more than $60 or so. as for the plates, they're expensive. around $300 or so.

The reason the bolts are more expensive then your local hardware stores bolts is because of the grade of steel used. And the fact that they have a very odd cut to the shaft making it possible to adjust your camber.

A bolt at your local hardware store is not as strong as the bolts used on suspension components by Auto Mfgrs.

I snapped a bolt on my Honda and the hardware store would not sell me a replacement. He saw the markings on the hex head and told me he could not provide me with a bolt of that stencil strength.

I think you meant "tensile strength".
