those springs hardly drop your car so i doubt you will need a camber...

well it says that it drops it front/rear
1.5 / 1.5 without sacrificing the stock ride quality.

you won't need it... just get an alignment after...

You most likely wont need it. Every car is different. Get an alignment afterwards and see if you need one.

but what i would still consider doing is... (see below)
just to be on the safe side..

as for camber kits, i have the ingalls only because they send you an arm for toe adjusting and an arm of camber...

I've had Tanabe NF210's and Tokico's for over a year now and paired with Eibach sways and many other suspension components being replaced I really don't like the combo. My car seems to handle good, but not great. Body lean in turns is average when I think it should be very good and the ride is bumpier than I would expect for a spring that compresses as much as the Tanabe's seem to. The Tokico's also seem to be mediocre. What are other Tanabe and Tokico Blue users opinions on my experience? I'd like to get H&R sports and Koni Yellows, but don't want to keep dropping money into my car if it won't make a very noticeable difference.
