Need a little extra adjustment

Recently, I lowered my car on a set of Pedders XA coilovers. When I got the alignment done, the most positive they could get the rear camber to was about -1.1 degrees. Everything else, including rear toe, is adjustable within ranges I'm happy with. I'd like to get the rear camber down to 0.5-0.8 degrees, so I can reduce my front camber (it's sitting at -1.6 degrees, I'd like to get it down to around -1.2, and use my camber caster plates to add some in when I want to.) Has anybody on here run the Eibach rear toe camber bolts? My rear toe is zeroed out, and I'd be fine with running that, or even a little toe-in if necessary, so I guess I'm trying to determine the following:

1) Will the Eibach bolts give me the extra 0.25-0.5 degrees of adjustment I'm looking for?

2) How detrimental will the camber change be to my toe adjustment range?

I'm also going to raise the rear a small amount, maybe 0.25-0.33 inches, which will get me a little closer.

Lastly, I've seen on here (courtesy of JusticePete, Chief Suspension Wizard) that you can slot the front caster holes and use the factory rear camber bolts to add some adjustability, so I figure I should go ahead and slot the hole and get the free agjustment, but I'd like to make sure it's as straightforward as i think.

Thanks for looking!
