when u lower your car too much...ur camber is alignment is knocked off, resulting in your tires losing tread quicker on the inside than out. buy a camber kit and have the person who installs it adjusts the camber settings

it depends on how low your dropped but camber A would be the better choice. some will say all you have to do is set the TOE to zero meaning theres no need for a camber kit. What i did? I bought the skunk2 front camber kit (dropped 2.5inchs+ all around) and i've seen no wear what so ever.

*a alignment will be needed after the camber kit install.

Get camber A, make sure you buy from a quality company. I'd suggest only skunk2, omni, and blox (maybe) camber kits for the fronts. As for the rears, you can do the washer trick, dont waste your money on a $100 rear camber kit.
