The SPC camber kit is what I have (rear ones). I got mine like for $130 shipped off of ebay. It is worth the money because buying new tires because of the tire running low in one spot every time you turn around is not worth the trouble. I put them on my car before I lowered the car because I knew that they were pretty much necessary. Any questions just ask.

so when are you planning on lowering ur vic?i may need to lift mine up a bit cuz i can run over a stick of gum and tell you what flavor it is.

 
Rep Power: 340

I reccomend neuspeed race springs that's what I have and i'm very happy with them...

 
Rep Power: 297

Yeah your looking at lot of money if you want to do it right and name brand products (unless you know a couple of people). I did mine one thing at a time because I didn't have all the money straight up.

It all depends on how low you want to go? If you want a one inch drop you will not need new shocks. If you go more than one inch you will sooner than later blow your oem shocks and need new ones.

This is the order I went when I was on a budget....
1. First I got the SPC camber kit and put them on.
2. Shock I didn't need because I only dropped it one inch. But if I needed them I would have put them on before the springs.
3. Then I put the springs on.
4. Need an alignment.

Threw out this processes and people get anxious and do it backwards. And then they mess up their tires and have to pay an American Express bill for the next several months because they had to fix it all at once.

Hope this helped. Any more Q's just ask.
