tokiko is a big brand, and their products have been used in many vehicles out there.
If you drop your car 1/5 inches, you might need a camber kit, even if slightly out of camber, your tires will wear uneven and it will turn costly for you to replace them. I would recommend you to get a camber kit.

My experience using Eibach springs with a 1.5" - 1.75" drop has shown that factory aligment adjustments are capable of compensating for this amount of drop.
