Camber kit?

So I recently dropped my car on Tein SS coils which I bought used from the HondaTuning V6 project car. I noticed the rear wheels have a little bit of negative camber but the coils do not allow me to adjust it. I want to hopefully flush my car will I need to buy a camber kit and will it fit with the tein coils(maybe a newb question sorry this is the first car I mod) also I asked the HondaTuning guy if I needed an alignment he said no but I've been reading a lot of threads where people get an alignment after their coils. It has been about a month since the drop I have not noticed anything bad but then again I do not know what to look for either input and advice would be great thanks.

I have the same setup. Dropped on tein ss coils with 19s. I got an alignment done. My toe was completely off. They were able to bring it to stock specs but with negative camber. To my understanding if I was to get a camber kit then I would also need a tow kit but since I run negative camber they were able to bring toe to spec without a kit

Ok so I really should get the alignment done soon. What setting did you put your dampers at?

definitely need an alignment to fix the toe after the coils settle. Give it a week or two for the coils to fully settle. They can adjust the toe back to zero with the oem toe and camber arms. But you will not be able to bring the camber back into spec without both an aftermarket toe and camber kit. But if you are going for the flush look (depending on how aggressive) you will need the negative camber anyways. good luck.

If you just need toe adjustment INGALLS offers a rear toe arm:

You will need a qty of 2 to do both sides.

my goal is some 18x10 +35 all around so i think I will probably need a camber kit to fit that wont I? Also another newb question but will that set up negatively affect my handling? I want concave rims but I don't want to lose performance either rims are still lighter then stock though
