Yes, it might not look like you need on but you will. ANd why did u get Ractive? Ractive sucks. But anyway, yes you will need a camber kit.

i have a 1.8 inch drop on my si, i have had the drop for like 4 months on new tires and they are good to go for about 3 more months (some camber wear but not too bad, just rotate the tires)........ i didnt get a camber kit altough it was suggested by alot of people...... just wait and see.... i think it will be different for almost everyone...... worst case, you just buy it when you need it.....

Don't hesitate, i wore out my fronts in less than a month, it sucks buying new tires instead of something new for your car.

general rule to follow....if you drop anywhere from 1.8 and lower....you better get one.

GC- $300
w/ average camper plates-$475-$525 (just a guesstimation, i haven't looked into the prices for them at all)

RActives- $125
w/ same plates-$300-$350 (again, just a guesstimation)

Not everyone has 500 bucks...i sport the RActives for just that reason
although they do suck....
