H&R SS, Camber Kit????

I am going to be installing some H&R SS in about a week. I was told that I may need camber kits eventually, is this true? Currently I am running the stock 16" wheels, but I may be bumping up to 17's or 18's at the beginning of the spring. Any first hand insight would be greatly appreciated, thanks...

With H/R sports you should be fine without camber kit. Just get a good alignment done 2-3 weeks after the install.

Sh*t, I had to get camber kits on the front and rear with my H&R Sports. But you might get lucky...Some do and some don't...Unfortunately for me, I had to get camber kits...so that sucked major A$$

How much are the camber kits? Hopefully I won't need them just preparing myself for the worse. How come some folks needed them and some don't?

out of curiosity, why should one wait 2-3 weeks in order to have the alignment?

You want to make sure the new springs have settled so that when you do your alignment, the settings won't change.

Correct. Like the others said, wait til the springs settle a bit.

dont' know why exactly some need them and others don't I guess it just depends...I drive a lot of people in my ride on a weekly basis so my springs might have settled lower, but don't quote me on that...I don't know I paid between $350-400 for all the camber kits...that is with shipping and install was free, courtesy of Limited TLS and my bro (my two mad scientist when it comes to my ride). hahahaha
