Camber Advice?!?!?

So I do a lot of autocrossing and I am getting a lot of outer tread wear. I know running more camber would help, but how much should I run?? I was thinking about getting some camber bolts and get a alignment, but I am hearing that these bolts wont be strong enough for autocross......any advice

I ran for 3 years on Ingalls camber bolts. Held up fine. The only thing is, if you stay at a high camber value for racing, you will wear out tires faster on the street. I was running -1.5 degrees of camber on both front wheels

I slotted the upper and lower holes in the struts, got about -2.8 on both sides. Never moved on Hoosier A6s through hillclimbs, autocrosses, and time trials. I did retorque a few times.
