considering I'm lowering my car 2" and my tires cost $1000, I should do something about my camber wear. Will these plates adj camber?

 

The top one will let you adjust camber on a Macpherson strut suspension, like the front of the FC has. I assume you have an FC, right? Another thing you can do is slot the bolt holes in the bottom of the strut and adjust it there.

The lower one in the picture will not help with camber adjustment, and you can't adjust camber by moving the top of the shock in the rear anyway. The camber does seem to be an issue in the rear of the FC, but I am not sure what you can do to adjust it. Anyone know how to adjust camber on the rear of the FC?

the link which goes between the floor pan and the subframe next to the diff head - replace it with a threaded one that you can lengthen or shorten depending on if you want more or less camber - VERY SIMPLE

 

thanks, I have an FD BTW. Will it still apply? I could always slot the holes on the strut but I want adjustability quickly.

 

For the FD your camber adjustments are made from underneath on the lower control arms. With factory-style aftermarket springs, it's possible to dial in almost 2 degrees negative camber, but impossible to dial more positive camber than 0.0 degrees (tires are completely perpendicular to the road surface at static loads).

I've been running -1.3 to -1.5 degrees negative camber for road and track with no major effects on tire wear...(Pirelli P-Zero Asimmetrics).

Oops, I should have guessed you had an FD by your screen name.

Like SleepR1 says, you already have adjustable camber on the FD by using the cam bolts that hold the lower control arm to the body. Moving the top of the shock (via the camber plates in the top of the picture) would have zero effect on camber, and thus aren't available for the FD anyway.
