i dont want any camber, i want to get back to 0...... right now i beleive i was at -1.7 on all sides..... so i can get away with this? cause i got some people telling me i wont last 3 months on my tires
Well, the specs on the 6th gen Accord are 0 for front, and -0 degrees and 30 radians for the rear. (Basically less than -1 degree in rear). But both are considered within the appropriate specs as long as they are +/- 1 degree within the standard. So 1.7 isn't off all that much.

Make sure your toe-in is correct. That will eat your tires faster than 1.7 negative camber.

I have uncorrected negative camber, and I'm going on about 18-20K miles on my 18's. I don't know my degrees in camber, but you can see it with the naked eye that's more negative than before the drop 2 years ago.

Hope that helps a little.
