you dont have to use a camber kit but if u want tires to last like they should, you also need a kit if u are going to do an alignment

...from what I hear...using a camber kit on an EF can only do so much. I think if you only drop your car a couple inches, it'll correct your camber. Anything lower, gets really expensive. I think there are some upper control arms that have alot of adjustment capabilities, BUT they cost an arm and a leg.

...as for aligning the toe, it can adjusted with or without a camber kit.

hope this help

its the toe that kills the tires not the camber, when you lower it increases toe not just camber, just get it aligned afterwards, i run with 2 degrees of neg camber and my tires dont get cooked, just rotate the tires frequently, if you want the car to turn better get 1/8 toe out, but that will wear tires
