I just need some clarification from the experts on classification.
If I use camber bolts in a stock suspension would that bump me up from street stock to street touring?

I believe the sections that apply are below:

13.8 SUSPENSION
B. Both the front and rear suspension may be adjusted through their designed range of adjustment by use of factory adjustment arrangements or by taking advantage of inherent manufacturing tolerances. This encompasses both alignment and ride height parameters
if such adjustments are provided by the standard components and specified by the factory as normal methods of adjustment. However,
no suspension part may be modified for the purpose of adjustment unless such modification is specifically authorized by the factory shop manual.

E. If offered by the manufacturer for a particular model and year, the use of shims, special bolts, removal of material to enlarge mounting
holes, and similar methods are allowed and the resulting alignment settings are permitted even if outside the normal specification or
range of specifications recommended by the manufacturer. If enlarging mounting holes is specifically authorized but no material removal
limits are specified, material removal is restricted to the amount necessary to achieve the maximum factory alignment specification.

This is a bit of a grey one. It's no with exceptions.

Thanks Ming, I agree it is a bit confusing. Just wanted to check. See you next week.

Basically they have to be an OE part for that car. I know e36 BMWs meet the requirements for Street class legal camber bolts.
