But I don't know whether the rear camber is adjustable at all.

It is, not by much, but it is.

This is after 16k miles, including about 10 autox events and 3 track days. The fronts are in better shape, except for the outside thread of course, that's gone. Thanks to the Zs build in understeer...

The camber curves for the rear mean you have to dogging it pretty good to get even wear on the rear.

the Z generally comes off the showroom floor with a decent amount of rear camber, as well as an aggressive rear camber curve. Most guys don't drive in a way that promotes even wear.
