Default Eccentric bolt for rear camber?

I just bought a 2008 and am looking to beat the rear tire issue before it wears out the new tires that came on it. The camber right now measures 1.5 degrees driver side and 1.6 degrees passenger side.

The obvious solution is the adjustable control arms. I saw one post where someone used eccentric bolts. Unfortunately I can't find that post again and I did not book mark it. But I also could not find the bolts for sale anywhere. But eccentric suspension bolts in general are not hard to find. Has anyone tried this as a MUCH easier solution to the rear camber problem?

Example.

Did you try a google search : "protege 5 camber bolt".


I found this:Mazda Protege5 Camber Kits - JCWhitney


I don't have any practical experience with wheel alignments. I would ask the alignment shop for help to select the correct parts.
