Straight from the FAQ

You dont NEED a camber kit even with a 5" drop. however, with any type of drop(even if its .5") you should get one in order to get a correct alignment. most people will say that with a drop lower then 2", a camber kit is HIGHLY recommended. just think of it this way would you like to save $200 by not getting a camber kit but replace your $400-500 tires twice a year? just invest in a camber kit, it'll save you in the long run.

you dont need a front camber kit with the hayames.....the upper bolt hole (where the two big bolts go) is slotted so you can adjust the camber right there...you might want to invest in a rear one tho

flipBloodracer is an unknown quantity at this point
yup no need for front camber kit just the rear...you need to drill the holes 16mm for the bolts to fit...

you don't need the front, I didn't use one. When you have your car aligned after the install that also takes care of the camber issues
