around 2 maybe 2.25-2.50 reason being depending on brand of shocks,wear and tear,how you drive,and brand of tire. Be prepared to dodge alot of potholes but when you get knocked youll feel it.
That depends on what your needs are. If you want better handling, 2-3 degrees negative camber is good but will wear out tires fast and add a lot more stress to other components like CV's, wheel bearings and ball joints. So, make sure you can afford to change these components often.
I have about 2.5 degrees negative camber in the front and have to change CV's and wheel bearings every 1.5 years. This is with Eibach Pro-kit springs (don't know how far the drop is) and Koni Yellow shocks.

i have apexi ws dampner coiloves and i bought a camber kit for the front, i had the car set pretty low, almost a 3 inch drop and the camber kit in the front kicked out the upper control arms and the top of the fenders were sitting on the arms, so i had to cut away some of the inner fender walls. the arms were still hitting the top of the fender wells, and blew ot the ball jointsso in the end i just took out the camber kit, i do wear tires down faster but it handles way better with camber.
why would you want a camber kit to restore factory specs? it eliminates one of the reasons you lowered your accord in the first place, negative camber is ur friend
toe wears out tires more than camber does

True... But who wants to pay 300-400 bucks or new tires in less than a year. I surely don't. Remember not all of us take our cars to the track... Most of the people on here use their cars for street use/track...but more on the basis of using it with everyday driving. So unless your rich then go for it
If not go for the camber kit.

Well I have had my car through many suspension set ups. First I had a sprint spring config that I loved.....dropped it about 2.5" in front and 2.25" in back. The back didn't have any camber tire wear (there was camber) but in the front had massive camber and massive tire wear (since its the drive type). I put on a 3 degree camber correction kit and barely helped. Right now I have a V-Spec II coilover kit and have it dropped to the tire and thats it, no camber and minimal tire wear....all in all about a 2" drop and you should have minimal tire wear anything more and better invest in a tire company. Happy dropping
