Most people who lower and don't install LCA at all, don't have toe issues with stock arm and bushing. They usually come out with about -2 deg camber.

Is it correct to assume the problem is more likely to occur if you try to stand the wheel back up to e.g. -1 deg?


My desired rear camber adjustment range would be around -1.7 to -2.3 deg (with corresponding increase in front camber as well). Am I likely to face problems with that?



I have to install the Whiteline Roll center correction ball joints anyway too. So I'll need a solution to that anyway. Yes, it's the part I presume could present the most hassle.
That's the correct interpretation. The toe bushing is only included for if you run out of adjustment range. Which generally only happens if you try to stand the rear camber up to -1 like stock.

I went to -1.9 in the rear, toe adjustment is slightly off center as expected. Absolutely no issues with a performance alignment. I also tried to stand the rear camber up to -1.0 and I maxed out the toe adjustment correcting, so I can see how people have run into issues with getting factory tame street alignment.
