Many people install without camber kits and most eventually get them or just deal w/ the increased tire wear. If you're modding your G for the long term (at least a couple years) the price for the camber/toe kits will pay for themselves. So in short, I'd get them.

what kind of camber kit will go well with eibach, doesn't need to be fancy.

SPC... it's not fancy, and not cheap. SPL would be the fancy kit.

This^^ the entire F&R kit including rear toe bolts is about $500 w/ the rear arm & toe about $170 and front arm about $350.

Having to buy a fresh set of tires a year early will cover that pretty easily

I had my car aligned when I had the Eibach springs and F&R camber kit installed on my 13 X Coupe. The car was out of spec. as you would expect, and they put it back within OEM specs. About a month later I noticed the car wasn't feeling right (alignment wise) and brought it back for an alignment check, everything managed to get back out of spec from the springs settling. I don't see any way to get everything in spec w/o the camber kits. All of my parts were professionally installed by Project X, so there was not any installer error; it's just the reality of the mod.

Weird.. My car sits really well. A very small camber and alignment is perfect.
