after much deliberation I ended up buying ksport coilovers - just a bit more than half the cost of pss9's and come with front camber plates and rear adjustment built-in.
Only an extra 0.5 degrees? Bummer.

I've been reading around as well, saw that thing re the washers...

I would think that the limiting factor would be that the shock tower has little room for travel in the tower 'bucket'. I wonder if something could be done at the other end- locating stops and an eccentric...? I'm installing ROW 030 right now and have done some tweeking so that I get .75" lower in the FR and .625" in the RR. I've read here that this will also increase my camber F-R. Are you getting new struts Pothole?

Yeah, I have an M030 kit to go on which I want to combine with H&R springs, so am looking for cheap ways to tweak the camber. Also looking into adjustable track arm bushes...
