In some instance no you do not need a camber kit. In the same sense other instances you do. Basically it all depends on exactly how low you go with the car. I personally would recommend spending the cash and putting one on rather than have trouble with tire wear. The camber may not look that bad but can chew up a set of tires in a matter of days if left alone. I actually have a camber kit on my car (lowered 1.5") but had to camber the back tires in so my 18's would not rub. I have not experienced excessive tire wear yet but have been keeping a close eye on it. So really it all depends on what you feel like, you could let it go and monitor the tire wear and if it is not a problem go without but if you notice any rapid tread wear get a camber kit fast and drive the car as little as possible.
