You shouldn't need one since it's just a 1.5" drop... it might butterfly a little but it's up to you I guess... Do you just want that much of a drop...? because you can also go with coilovers.

i recently got a set of eibach sportlines that dropped the car a little over an inch. My tires didn't butterfly that much although i did have a little bit of toe in. I don't plan on a camber kit and i don't think you should either.

Eibach Sportlines

I like mine, a little bit harsher then stock as they should be, but I'm also on 205/40/17's. Improved handling and feel alot even on stock struts. Drop is enough for me since its my daily driver and I can still go over speed bumps without scraping.

EDIT: I have no camber kits. My rears are a little more cambered obviously, but I dont think I need a rear kit just yet.

if your looking to kill the gap your going to have to go with atleast a 2.25" drop... eibach sportlines arent going to do it
