Default fixing suspension...keep camber kit or not necessary?

my car was lowered on progress lowering springs w/no camber kit (2.0" drop) and my tires had no camber wear after over a year on them. I decided to go lower with skunk2 coilover sleeves, i dropped it fairly low, no finger gap but not tucking and bought an omni power camber kit (upper control arm style)..well, i ate through those tires in 3 months (cambered)

im getting rid of the crappy coilovers and putting on neuspeed or skunk2 lowering springs with new struts..my question is, i plan on getting an alignment (the toe is definitely off, the car pulls to the left) with the new lowering springs, is it even worth keeping the camber kit? or just sell the thing

If you maintain a reasonable height and have an alignment performed, you shouldn't need the camber kit.

skunk2 claims 2.5" front and 2.25" rear

since i cant find any pictures on here of cars lowered with them, im assuming that lowering would leave a small fender gap
