alignment/wheels
ok so i installed my camber kit today and it corrected my aligment but its still off by a little bit, all i need to do now is bring it in for an alignment but the thing is...do i need to purchase new tires? lets say i get it aligned and later in the future when the tires does goes out is it gonna trow my alignment off from trowing new set of tires on?.... im guessing itll trow the alignment off only if i buy different sized tires....but if i get the same sized tires same brand would my alignment be the same?
my tires as of right now are aite up on the inside but not much...

How do you know it corrected your alignment?? You should still get it aligned properly as you have changed suspension geometry. There is no need to change tyres before doing so as alignment just makes sure the tyres are pointing in the correct direction, if you still have some negative camber the insides are still going to wear slightly faster than the rest of the contact patch. Having it aligned just means that when you do put new tyres on they wont wear as fast on the inside or where ever so long as you dont change camber or suspension settings before that.
OT: I cant belive that your user name hasnt been taken before now.

No, as mentioned above.
Just be aware that, once the car is aligned, the wear pattern may change. So for example, if you have tires that are worn along one edge now (indicating a possible alignment problem), that means that they will still have that wear pattern, even if the correct alignment makes them wear evenly from now on. (Hope that makes sense.)
