My mods are: ATE brake fluid, ProjectMu Club Racer pads, SS brake lines, Whiteline camber bolts, Kosei K4R 17x8 wheels and Bridgestone S-04 225/45 tires.
With only -1.0 degrees of camber in the front, my guess is that I still do not have enough camber and the extra wear is coming from the tires rolling too much to the outside. I would prefer to stay on the stock suspension as long as possible as I find it quite capable for my abilities; so with that said, what are other routes for me to maximize front camber with the stock suspension? I appreciate the help.

Off-topic, did you run with Chin Motorsports at TWS? If so, how was the event? I know they just recently expanded to the mid-west and run a lot of their events over here in the Southeast.
My feedback on this, for what it is worth - I have run -1.6* camber up front on Pilot Super Sports using camber bolts on stock suspension, and still corded the shoulders.
Using OEM tophats with the RCE T2 coilovers, I was at -2.0* camber up front with Nitto NT01s, and am still scrubbing the outside of the tire.
I just bought some Ground Control camber plates and aiming for -3.0* or more camber up front to help with the outside shoulder wear.
