For that kinda drop, no. And even if you were dropped 3 inches, I wouldn't recommend spending a few hundred on a front camber kit. If you really want to purchase one, get a skunk2 rear camber kit and a full alignment from a tire center/shop.

A full alignment should do just fine for your setup though.

you can make your own rear shim kit, and then get an alignment and have them set the tow to zero.

All you really need is a alignment and that should do the trick for camber wear. And btw this is suppose to be posted in the suspension form. Good luck.
