You'll most likely need the toe bolts.

The most important is your toe adjustment you can ride with a -2.7 camber in the rear as long your toe is close to zero tire wear would be minimal.

But if your toe is way out or in even within a spec camber number your ride would still eat up your tires and runs horrible.

So you just missed the most important piece of the puzzle. There is a reason why this comes with the kit. Like salt and pepper! They go together.
