i think you mean camber kit, and you really only need those if you are lowering your car more than 2" and that just makes your wheels sit vertical... so you dont get premature wear in your tires

there's was a thread on it already.. 1.3" drop

i'm guessing you dont know what camber is.. camber is part of alignment, its how much your tires are tilted... negative camber is when the top of the tires tip in toward the center of the car making the tires look like this from behind... / \... positive camber if when the top of the tires tip away from the car like this \ /... anytime you lower the car your cambers going to be negative. it's fine to a certain extent(also known as specifications), once it passes spec, its recommended you get a camber kit. many people with a 1.3" drop had a camber that was within spec so they didnt need one..

-locked- because this has been discussed before.. you can always reply in the other thread..
