How much lowering can we do and not get camber kit
That's my big question.
I have 1996 honda accord lx v6, with stock springs and dropzone springs.
I have camber kit in the front, but I have negative camber in the rear.

you can slam that bitch to the ground. its not going to hurt anything but your tires. any lowering is going to need a kit if you want even tire wear though

You can go up to around 3.5 degrees of negative camber front or rear without causing tyre wear so long as total overall thrust is correct and the toe in is corrected after the installation of the suspension.

um im not trying to be argumentative or anything, but have you ever rolled around with 3 DEGREES of negative camber?! holy **** your tires are going to be toast after 10k miles. now i actually have 1.8 degrees front and back negative with all other measurments withing spec, and the insides of my tires are always the first to go, i get about 20k to a set.

The answer to your question is yes, I have and do. My DC2 ITR track car has about that much negative camber on the front, and it's a car that I still drive to the track. There is no unusual wear pattern. The street tyre are Hankook Z212, and the track tyres are Toyo RA1.
Most of what people interpret as "camber wear" is actually wear caused by uncompensated toe in changes inherent in the lowering of an old double wishbone car.

I just double checked, and the Honda factory specifications for the HFP suspension on a 2003-2005 Accord call for no adjustment to the 2 degrees of negative camber caused by the one-inch drop of the factory HFP suspension for that car.
