I think you mean new bushings and a "camber" kit. The camber kit will compensate for the negative camber that occurs with lowering your car a decent amount. Alot of negative camber can cause accelerated inner tire wear.

The bushings was probably suggested incase the original bushings are worn out.

Hope that helps clear things up a bit?

I have my car lowered with a camber kit. For some reason, it squeaks like crazy in the front right. I've been told it's either the bushings or the camber kit, or a combo of both. What do you think? Should I replace the bushings?
