Cambers depends on how low your car is lowered.
I don't have TEIN springs but I do have the TEIN HA coilover for DC2 and its great! Best money I have spent on my car.

My boy had them on his civic. Those spings are more for looks than anything else but they do tighten up the suspension a bit and there is less roll. They have rubber where the spring meets the pillowball mount to prevent noise. Also, They dont lower the car much~1.5 inches. I just ordered them for my RXS-S

Re: tein lowering springs any good (3 South)
the tein lowering springs that im might order is 2.7 in the front and 1.7 in the rear drop which is better on a 205/40/17 size tires the H&r or tein (H&R is 2.0f, and 1.7r)

The Tein STECH springs are a 2.6" front 1.7" rear with spring rates of 336 front and 274 rear. Depending on which H&R's your going with, I'm assuming you meant the Race because the are 2"front and 1.75"rear you will need a camber kit. The Race springs have rates of 455 front and 360 rear so they are way stiffer. You will need a camber kit with either set.

Re: tein lowering springs any good (paeaknoy)
I just helped my friend install the Tein S-tech springs. Overall the drop looks very nice, the drop was lower than I was expecting though. I have to say that the spring rides very well, it feels like the stock ride. However, I would go with something else if you want something that handles better than stock. Those springs are just to lower the car, not to give you much of a handling improvement.
