u should be good. you dont really "need" a camber kit. i dont have one on my vic. the thing u got to think about is if ur goin to put a body kit on lader. if u do what i did and lower ur civic then put a kit on down the road its goin to be super low wich i found out the hard way..and is the reasion i have to have 18 inch rims so i dont scrape lol. my car pulls a lil to the left but its nothin that bad. id just cut the rocker arms off and put it on the ground with bags JUSTTTT KIDDINGGG

Yeah, "you don't really need a camber kit," you'll just need to change tires every six months.
OF COURSE YOU NEED A CAMBER KIT!!
Especially if you want to go 2-3 inches. You're gonna waste more money replacing tires than buying a camber kit for $150. Think about it, do it right the first time. LXracer's car pulls to the left because his car is not aligned correctly.

^^^^i Agree, Was Waiting For Some To Say That. Always Do Things Right The First Time. It Saves Money. Once You Drop It Any Highth, Change Rim Size, Or Get New Tires. Make Sure You Get A Camber Kit If You Drop It. Get An Alignment Aswell. Do Those And Youll Be Good. Dont Listen Lxracers Comment. He Still Has Alot To Learn
