Default Camber kits?

So I'm washing my car, and notice some lines on my rear tires. I look and i'm completely bald on the inner portions of my rear tires. So much so, that the sidewall wire is showing. Mind you, these tires are no more than 3 months old, and I don't usually drive like an @ss. Given that my car has excessive camber in the rear which is causing this, what are some good camber kits that won't fail on me like the Ichiba stories i've been seeing?

I think there are several, do a quick search.

SPL I think is better than SPC from what I read, but they don't have front camber arms.

SPL def has a much nicer finish but I have read that you would expect it to be a bit harsher for street use since they don't use OEM style bushings... I just purchased some used SPCs... quality looks descent, havent installed them yet but I haven't heard anyone complain about them either.
