no that is not true, at this point im on s techs/stock shocks, i was told that since the s techs only drop about 1.8 in. max ull be fine on your rear cambers. ive been like this for a few months and tire wear is normal and strait. just make sure u get your alignment asap!

camber kit is not detrimental but is something you must decide whether you want it or not. What really eats your tires away is the neg camber toe and that can be fixed with an alignment.

I didnt need camber kit on my EG.

Dont know about an EP.

But you can always just do it, and let us know! No biggie if you have some ballin' camber for a few weeks.

If you have HFP suspension, then why are you changing around the springs?

2 degrees of rear camber is 2 degrees too much if you want a car that handles well

There is no right way to slam these cars.
