Default camber kit or ground control coilovers??

My car is lowered with a 1.5inches drop (bought it like this) and i currently put some 17x7 rims with new 205/40/17 Falken 512s tires. Now my car is off alignment and i need to go get it aligned. What should i do... should i buy front and rear camber kit or should i just get ground control coilovers?? Any suggestions comments is greatly appreciated. Thanks

Both. you shouldn't need a kit for less than 2 inches. But the GC's are not going to help with camber, unless you raise the car back up to near stock. Think about what you are asking. If you keep the springs you need a kit, if you get different springs (coilsovers) then you need a kit. So you should have both.

And when you say your alignment is off, do you mean the car pulls one way, or that the tires are being eaten up by the TOE, not camber.
