Your total rear toe is -.75. That's eventually going to chew up the inside of your tires. Get adjustable toe arms ASAP. You need to get that number down to zero or slightly positive, but negative toe is a death sentence for tires.
What camber hole setting are you using on your rear RCAs ?
And btw when you drive , doesn't the rear feel loose going quick around turns?
Since your front camber is waaaay out of spec a little positive front toe is actually helpful in reducing inner tire wear. Zero toe is only good when camber is in spec.

Masboy - seeing how your rear toe is outta spec and maxed out on the adjustment i believe it might be in your best interest to look at either Megan adjustable IS300 Toe arms, FIG adjust toe arms, or Top speed toe arms.
hows clearance with your rim/tire/fender right now?

The camber in the rear is fixed and can't be adjusted on the alignment rack. The only way to change the camber angles is with inserts. That is why the before & after camber values are the same in back. My car is at -1.9, -1.9 in back with the center insert in place. This conservative camber value will not eat up your rear tires. A bit of negative camber is good for handeling as well.. I would leave well enough alone and not go any more positive in the rear. Up front is a different story.. I am now at -1.6, -1.6 camber up front from
-2.1, -2.1. This is without raising the coilovers further.. How did I accomplish this?? The decrease in camber values is a result of my tech adjusting the caster more negative. The end result is a car with more control and feedback. No more wandering on uneven pavement at highway speeds.. My car feels so much more solid & planted than it did in the beginning of this RCA experiment. My toes angles are even all around @ 0.5 thanks to the ability to adjust the rear toe angles at any given value.. Adjustable toe arm links ftw..
Just my experience to date.. How does your car track at present op?
