Camber will not eat your tires as much as TOE will, get alignment after your drop. Those springs will blow your Tokico blues in no time.

i have this set up, ran them in my car from april till november with no problems, pulled them out for winter. They will be going back in in spring, shocks are still fine. Lowered the car considerably, its not dumped, but there is barly any wheel gap. Perfect height in my opinion.
