08 Honda Fit rear camber specs 1.5 degrees +-1 degree.
I measured on my backyard 2 degrees, old tires were worn out inside (too negative camber)
Solid axle, I bought different washers, I will install them on top spindle bolts.
 
Strange, I've not come across any car* that had adjustable camber, front or rear. Only adjustment to steering I've seen is front wheel toe in.

I was under the impression that the camber is set by design or at the factory and shouldn't need adjusting?

* note I'm not a car mechanic so that number is limited to 10-20 models, none of which are Japanese.
 
Good mechanic can and has to adjust non-adjustable alignment if necessary. Front camber can be adjusted, installing special bolts or elongating strut holes, rear camber and toe can be adjusted with special shims, but I just used 1.2mm washers.
BTW, Harleys have alignment adjustment.
