camber very seldomly causes tire wear, that would be the toe

oh alright. so that would also mean i dont really need to worry about getting an alignment?

Guys/Girls...the idea of not needing a camber kit doesn't just apply to everybody like that. True that camber doesn't eat tires anywhere as fast as toe does but camber still causes the insides to get eaten out a bit faster. It seems a bit false that the idea of "you dont need a kit, its not necessary, floats around here a bit too often" as at the end of the day thats false information, but depending on what you're looking for you may not need it.

So when you lower your car your best bet is...
...lower it.
...drive it for 1-2 weeks to let the springs settle and make your final adjustments if coilovers.
...GO GET a 4 wheel alignment and ask the shop to bring your toe to spec.(ie.0) and bring your front camber as close to spec as they can.
...look at the print out the shop gives you and see what your rear camber is at.
...Based on the above decide on whether you want to go with the camber kit or not.

I'm probably dropped maybe ~2" and my camber was -1.8 and -2.4 after alignment. I didn't like that so got a camber kit.

What's the point of a 4 wheel alignment ? When I dropped my car, I had a ****load of toe in the front, so I got a 2 wheel alignment and it was fixed. What can possibly go out of alignment in the back besides camber ?

ummmm...toe:p . Hence right now you're probably chewing through your rear tires since you never got them fixed depending how long you've been driving like that.
You know you got front/rear toe and front/rear camber.
