getting rid of camber in rear

What else can I do besides use a rear camber bar to get my tires from wearing so much on the inside? After installing the bar, I was hoping I'd at least be able to see a little difference. Would it be possible to make a custom bar longer than the one offered by K2RD to help alleviate this problem, or does it max out to a certain length for a reason? I apologize if this is a dumb question.

there should be a lil camber in the rear.. -1 degree i think is stock... maybe the individual camber adjuster links that mazdatrix makes might give more adjustment (or paired with the center bar... im not sure if they would work with or against each other

I have HKS springs in the rear which are fairly new. I'm sure that's probaby part of the problem, but I was hoping the camber bar would've alleviated it. I'll look into the individual camber adjuster links. Thanks for pointing those out. Has anyone tried these with noticeable results, and are they difficult to install?

i ran the k2rd piece on my car and jic's that are almost as low as i can go without being retarded. My tire (225/45/17) sits just higher than the fender in the rear, and my k2rd piece allowed me to put my camber back to the stock range.
