Camber kit. Front ?

If i get the H&R sport springs with 1.75 drop both front and rear, do i need the camber kit for both or just the rear only ?
Does it apply for the Eibach too ?
Thanks !!!

from what i gather, the rear is must susceptible to camber wear so that is why i put a rear kit only. i have p7000ss with prokits for about a year now, and the front camber wear is not too bad (ie, pretty even) with frequent rotations (about every 4000 miles). maybe someone with prokits without kits can chime in...

You probably will be OK on the front. Front camber can be align w/o camber kit. You can get the rear camber kit only.

sounds right because it's your driving wheels. the only reason i added a rear kit was because the rears seem to camber more as you drop lower...so this is the real reason why i added a kit and only to the rear wheels. but if you think about it, adding a front kit would be more worthwhile...and getting a full set would be even better. then there is the deal with lower offsets and rubbing, so that plays into the equation.

Can't see how you would need it with H & R springs. I had mine slammed on coilovers and it still didn't camber out that bad. Definately have it checked at a alignment shop. Also watch your tire pressures that will wear tires out too along with a heavy foot!!
