If you plan on lowering your car more than 1.5 inches then think about getting a camber kit as well. Typically, for every inch of lowering the negative camber will increase about 1 degree. Ingalls Engineering sells a kit that replaces the lower strut mount bolt with an adjustable bolt. It allows camber corrections of 1 degree positive or negative. The site is www.ingallseng.com. Cusco sells an adjustable pillow ball mount that allows correction of up to 5 degrees (+) or (-). I think. But www.corksport.com sells them. A bit pricey.

sprint are cheap springs, but they are decient, you dont need a camber kit for 2 inches, but make sure to get an alignment when your finished with the install.

thats not always neccessarily true. my car is 3 inches lower than stock, with no camber kit and no camber issues. as was stated, a good alignment will fix you up nicely after the install.
