I've read though various current and archived posts including:

and https://honda-tech.com/zerothread?id=786016
hoping to find the answers applicable to me but it seems that the necessity for camber correction, toe re-alignment, or both, depends on your own particular situation.

My situation is this - 5th generation 94 accord, with neuspeed sport springs (1.75" f, 1.5" r) (supposedly), and tokico blue shocks all around.
Got it done this past summer, but wasn't informed by my motorhead / mechanic friends that an alignment to fix toe is necessary. (I didn't realize this until seeing the useful info posted on this site). So, that was never done.

I have been seeing noticable wear on the inside of my FRONT stock and low profile wheels (I put the stock wheels back on for the winter). But, I can't see any significant wear on the rear wheels although the camber looks to be more severely negative in the rear than the front wheels after the new suspension.

I was thinking I needed a camber correction kit, but since I haven't seen much wear on the rear wheels, and after reading what I have on this site, I am leaning towards just taking the thing in for realignment and that's it. Does anyone with my same or similar setup agree? Anyone know what my likely camber is now after dropping it with the sport springs?

If you guys recommend both the camber kit and realignment, which Ingalls kit would be recommended for my setup? There's one for up to 1.5 degrees and one 1.5-3 degrees I believe.

Lastly, if I need to fix the camber, should I invest in a kit for both the front and the rear, or just the front since that's where the noticeable wear is right now? (I guess someone who's had their accord lowered for a while now might have some better insight into this last question)

Thanks for the help.

i have minimal wear on the inside of my tires--all i do is alignment when i switch stockies for other wheels. eibach sportlines dropped my car 1.8 in the front and 1.7 in the rear, and i have gone without a camber kit. if you are noticing moderate to excessive wear i would consider a camber kit, unless you want to keep replacing your tires(not sure what you are running, but my nittos are like $96 a tire). not sure this helps but good luck

So, switching out the larger tires with stock ones (& vice versa) necessitates a realignment as well as any suspension modification?

Anyone agree that the wear problem from dropping the suspension seems to be worse in the front than the rear?

 

i have the exact setup with the neuspeeds & tokico struts, i went ahead and got a camber kit from ingalls that is adjustable from 1.5-3 degrees, after my alignment, I ended up with 1.5 degrees of camber in the front and 1.7 in the rear or something like that, i've been riding like this for over a year now and my tires are wearing pretty even right now my main problem was the toe was off real bad and I burned up my tires in a week, so just get your toe fixed and for extra piece of mind I'd get the camber kit

 

i have the exact same setup, i got away w/o a camber kit by correcting the rear camber with some washers, getting an alignment, and rotating the tires every oil change. when i got my 18'' rims i just got a 1.5-3.0'' ingalls styled front kit, installed it and went and got it aligned again.

 

Is it better to pay a mechanic to put on the ingalls front camber kits or is it an easy change out for someone mechanically inclined?

I've also read some on the washer trick for the rear camber... any place I can go to find out how to do it myself and also determine exactly what hardware I need? I tried a search, but only found discussion on the issue.
