Default 6th gen accord springs/shocks

Hey everyone...I was wondering if I dropped my car about 1.5 inch with the eibach pro kit...would i have to worry about any camber wear and having to get a camber kit? Do anyone recommend to replace the shocks? Its a daily driven car...I would love something really smooth not bouncey...thanks in advance

yes, they would be fine without a camber kit...you should be fine on stock shocks for a while as well...also, you can probably do this install yourself as well...it's pretty basic in terms of modifications to a car...

full how-to, right here:

if you have the money Iwould get a camber kit, i had mine dropped 18.f 1.7 r and i got camber wear eventually. It will happen but not as bad as if you slammed the car.I would also as soon as you can look into some shocks maybe tokico blues they worked great for me and not too much on the price

You may need it eventually...I have a 2 inch drop and my rear end was starting to go bad after about 2 years.
