Just looking to hear what others are doing and whats working for them. Knowledge is power :o)

We're missing a little bit of data here. What size are the wheels?
This will be a trade-off situation for you then if inside edge wear is a real concern. The few serious STX people who've told me how much front camber they had were all more than 3 degrees negative. You can't get there with OEM crash bolts. Or with any camber bolts that I'm aware of (but you'll get closer). You'll likely need plates to hit those levels.
But, at those levels, your tires will see some meaningful wear. Potential ideas for that:
-Rotate religiously and flip them on the rims at what you think might be a midpoint to their life
-Make do with less camber and maybe try to mitigate that with toe settings
-Accept it as an operating cost of a car that turns well
As for struts. That's another trade-off. How attached are you to the idea of keeping the TRD springs?
