well i have some springs. im just wondering if our cars need a camber kit after just 1.5" or so of drop??? i know some do and some dont. just dont wanna find out the hard way. will an alignment do it or do i need the kit???? i also have heard the front is clear but it tends to be the back that goes out....any help would be GREATLY appriciated.

some say you do, some say you don't. if i were you i'd err on the side of caution and get a camber kit.

You dont ever "need" camber kit. I would suggest people buy rear camber kit if they drop car more than 1.75".I dont have camber kit with tein s tech springs. seems fine.

the drop on my teins is just under 2", and i would say YEs, you do need a camber kit in the back. if at all. i dont have one, and im waiting for my tires to wear down b4 i get one so i have an excuse to get some new tires.
but you could probably get away with no camber kit, its not a really hardcore drop, unless you have heavy stereo stuff back there, in which case id warn you should watch out for sag..

yes, definitely get a camber kit installed in the rear, then take it for an alignment :)
