There is no stock rear camber adjustment on the xB and none really needed if you are lowering. The rear axle has a static camber that doesn't change when lowering due to the live axle design. If you need some camber due to rear wheel offset or just want some more negative camber for the look then the only option I've seen is this;

Would the front tC camber bolts work or the xB2? When I did the front springs they looked liked the tC setup. I ask cuz my friend has the tC ones and I was gonna get them from him. If not can someone point me to a sponsor that sells them I did a search but couldn't find them and I already checked Dezod but no xB2. Thanks.

Not disputing your tire wear but how would the camber change? The rear is a solid beam axle with a fixed mounting angle. I had mine measured when I droped it with the stock axle and the camber didn't change, the toe did though due to the arc the axle travels through when moving up and down. I could see the the inside edge wearing due to the increased toe and the stock camber, especially with strechted tires.

Ok so I posted here before with no response but just got an alignment today and front is within specs without needing a camber kit (bolt). I'm dropped on stechs which I believe are the lowest out there. The rear camber was also within specs but the toe is off. Is there anything to correct the toe for the rear on the xb2?

This is a late post but I've seen a RS on air that was running camber shims. Looked pretty legit.
