How far did ou lower your car?

I'd start with getting an alignment to find out how much negative camber, not chamber, you have. Depending on the readout you might need a camber kit.

go to http://www.ebay.com and bid on a set of front and rear camber kits.

since you went lower then 2" your camber is fucked, and your tires will last about a month

i personally don't really care for camber kits. unless your cambers is really really negative, i wouldn't really really worry about it. rotate your tires every 5k miles and you should be ok, unless you got some crazy expensive tires. i wouldn't go as far as saying your tires will only last a month though. look at this way...camber does help in handling!
