You don't need a camber kit. Just go get an alignment and have them set the toe as close to 0 as possible. A little negative camber is good and it won't really wear out your tires any faster. A little tip is to have your tires flipped on the rims once they start showing some inner wear. I have 30k miles on my pos Kuhmos at the moment and am about to do that on my fronts. My rears still have tons of tread on them. I'm lowered about 3" and have never had a camber kit in my life.
