H&R sports and camber kit?

I kno what some of you are gonna say: search, but i dont feel like it and i dont think this question would be answered if i searched anyways...

my question is, if i put H&R sports on, and get an alignment, how will i know if i need a camber kit? i know if the wheels are all slanted, but how much is too much? also is it hard to adjust camber kits b/c im guessing there are a lot of precision measurements that have to be made.

How many of you actually have a camber kit? and those of you w/ H&R sports, how long did ur tires last with only the alignment(in miles) and no camber kit? i was dropped before on ground controls, and it ate up my tires (i didnt even get an alignment) in like 2 months:wow:!

Well I got H&R Sports, the guy did an alignment twice, and said it was perfect, but I can still see that the rear wheels are somewhat angled. Maybe it's supposed to be like that, or maybe I'm too paranoid.

With H&R Sports, I'd say that every car is different, some people need the camber kit, some don't. After about a month of having them on the tire wear seems to be even.

witout camber kits your tires really dont slant at all... just get an alignment after u let the springs settle and ull b fine. had my springs on for about a month already and i have normal wear.. nuttin uneven and just got my alignment done yest and now tis perfect.

its funny cuz when i had the ground controls on, the front looked perfectly aligned, and the rears looked a little slanted. the rear tires had NO wear at all while the fronts were bald.
