Well it is highly suggested for the rear and just slightly suggested for the front. The front is only $20 so you might as well get one.

yea... since our front is macpherson (sp?) strut, there is not much camber change when the suspension travels up and down... however the back gets more and more negative as the car gets lower...
you need a camber kit if you lowered your car more than 1.5 inches and if your tires look like this (excuse the crappy drawing)
(this a view of the car from back)
roof
//____\\ <----tires
ground
that means you have negative camber, the insides of your tires will wear out much faster... if you don't mind changing your tires after a few months then you don't need a camber kit....
if you want your tires to wear out evenly and last you much longer, get a camber kit...
the rear ones are more important than the front, so if your short on cash at least get the rear ($100-$120).... then later get the front (only $20)
