Default need camber kit...?

i recently just got an alignment done and they printed out a read of the camber and such...if i were to post it on here would you guys be able to tell if i need one or not? Thx in advance
BTW...I know if you have sportlines you most likely need a kit but i just wanna make sure before i buy one.

if your tires are showing tire wear (inside of rubber wearing out quicker than outside), then you should probably grab a set to correct the camber. other than that, you should be ok.

good idea you got an alignment before any indicated wear on your tires. Most people neglect alignments after doing something to their suspension. Even if you think your tires look perfect, you can never be too safe. BTW its not the camber thats hurting you its actually the toe thats eating your tires away.

out of spec toe will eat away more tire, but i'm pretty damn sure too severe negative camber will give you uneven tire wear as well... i mean its only common sense because there is more pressure being applied to the inside of the tire...

As for camber... i personally wouldn't run my car with anything more than -1deg of camber. just my opinion.
