well, i wouldnt pay more than 160 for a set of camber kits
but the thing you said about the angle of the suspension...
so lowering my car 2.0 inches with a camber kit that supports 1.5 vs just lowering my car .5 without the camber kit
which one would be worse for my tire wear and ect.

based on what I know lowering it the way you are talking vs. lowering .5" from stock is a bit worse, how much worse I'm not 100% sure. However I just wanted to make sure you see that the camber kit you are looking at is only for a set of 2, so you still need something to adjust the rear

here's a FAQ from ingalls about camber, ingalss makes ball joints for about $160 (front only) that will do +3 degrees change

http://www.ingallseng.com/faq.htm

Also, Take note under the description section of that post this is what it says. Double check with the guys before you buy them because it would appear that you're looking at a set of two. I've been wrong before though!

"Do camber kits come in sets of 4?
No, unless otherwise noted, camber kits are sold in sets of 2, so you buy one set for the front and/or one set for the rear."

I do see the seperation though from "Complete Kit" vs. "front or rear" but you may want to take note that the front kit is about $75.00 and the rear kit is about $65.00 so if you buy them seperatly it's $140.00 vs. $151.00 for the kit....

I was more posting the faq because the referance how camber will affect a 92 accord (same as yours) and how it works (kind of) so I listed it for referance more than anything
