What is the camber range for the Comptech front camber bushing kit?

Does it provide even tire only at the track?

Would this help my "understeering" at the track?

With increased camber, would this make the car "darty"...meaning not wanting to stay in a staight line?

Does Comptech make bushings for the rear, or are they not necessary?

I believe it maxes out at - 4 degrees of camber.

I suppose you're meaning "even" wear. If so, it depends on what kind of driver you are and if you really lean on the car at the track. Also depends on the track b/c neg camber is only good in the turns and a detriment under braking. I'd say you'd get more even tire wear if ryou un 8-10/10ths.

If you're going 8-10/10ths. If you're not, then I'd focus more on taking the right line and car control.

Toe out up front is going to make your car more darty. Camber is going to give your outside wheel more traction under cornering.

Typically, the front of a race or sport intended car is going to have more neg camber in relation to the rears b/c the rears have the added responsibility of putting power down and a driver can use the throttle to determine traction and rotate the car any which way. I'm sure there are other answers as well.
