Going for the springs but have a question...

Im going for the Comptech springs but my roomate said that his buddy needs a camber kit because of the springs messing up something in the rear. Do I need this?

Also, does adding the Comptech springs make your car hop around? I dont want it looking like those rice cars you see that bounce all around on every bump or on the highway.

Also, where do you guys get springs? autocarparts.com?

Thanks in advance for any advice.

You do NOT need a camber kit. I just put my springs on, and had my alignment done today. The aligment was slightly out of spec, and they adjusted it. Everything is in spec now, nothing is out. Without camber plates. The car does not lower enough to have camber plates.

no need for a camber kit, the drop is not low enough...i think the comptech springs are one of the smoother riding springs, so you will not hop around

About 2 inches and the rear will need it!!! I have the Neuspeed Sports, 1.75 all the way around. After settling, they are closer to 2 inches of drop. I had to get the rear camber kit!!! The camber was really bad!!!

With the comptechs, you will NOT need a camber kit.
