I need a 4 wheel alignment as soon as possible but my shocks are blown. I was thinking of just getting the F&F Type 1 coilovers on ebay then get a 4 wheel alignment after. Would I need to buy the front & rear camber kit aswell? Right now I only have enough for the coilovers & alignment.

All depends on how low you go and what the actual camber specs are after install. Toe will kill tires faster than camber. Toe can be adjusted without a camber kit.

Probably like a one finger gap with the stock 17's. Should I get the camber kit aswell? My tires are around 75% thread life for all 4.

if you are going to be running 1 finger gap then i would say you'll be fine..

if you are going to push it and take the coils low... it would be wise to go ahead and get the camber kit.

im running ff1s and im slammed, no camber kit, tires are doing fine. i got an alignment 1 week after installing them. if i were to get camber kit i would just get it for the rear. but up to you.

same here... i have a camber kit for the rear but i havent installed it yet since i would have to roll my fenders to get any better... can barely fit a finger between the tire and fendr

i have FF1s with tire tucked, -2 finger gap all around, no camber kit, no alignment. over 1000 miles on the coils and my tires are getting eaten. i dont know if its camber wear or toe wear though.

i installed my coils and then the semester got busy and forgot about the alignment

yup i will as soon as i get some free time. i also finally found a height that i am completely comfortable with so i wont be adjusting the coils anytime soon.

would i need another alignment after installing a rear camber kit in the future?

okay well these tires are shot anyways. might as well wait till i get a camber kit.
