You don't HAVE to have a camber kit to put lowering springs on. But if you want to run OEM alignment settings you HAVE to have a camber kit to do so. When I put my springs on and had alignment done 2 weeks later i was far from OEM specs... There is some adjustment there to work with stock.. but not near enough to get to OEM specs. Sure you can get it as close as you can and the car will prolly still perform fine... But I can honestly say that after I put my camber kit on and got the front & rear back in to OEM specs the car seems to perform better in all categories... I can't remember exactly what my settings with springs (before the camber kit) were but I think I was at -2.5 in the rears and -1.5 in the fronts... OEM for my Nismo is -1.58 rear & -.58 front. Even with the camber kit I'm can't acheive OEM across the board due to the fact that the toe is affected by the springs also so I had to settle for a happy medium between camber and toe. Which is why I'm also looking for a toe kit. But anyways my point is you don't HAVE to have a camber kit... but if you don't it probably just means some extra wear & tear
