i would think it would still increase the wear of the tires because it changes the camber to sooomme degree..right?

make sure you get it aligned after you drop. you should not need a camber kit. How many miles on your TL?

Get it checked, and if there is a camber, then get a kit. Every car is different with H&R Sports.

Make sure you do the alignment 1-2 weeks after the install. The springs will sag a bit after initial install then stablize. The drop will be a bit more once it's settled. Then at that time you can do the alignment

when you get it aligned, if its a good place, they should give you a specific camber degree for each wheel, anything more than a degree and a half off and you have the potential for some funky tire wear, so wait until after you align to decide if you need a camber kit
