If yu already Paid for them and had them installed, I would imagine it doesn't matter if you made a good descision or not...it's too late.

With that being said, $160 for the springs AND install is a pretty good deal. Count yourself lucky.

but now apparently i need front and rear camber kit, the rear is only cambered a little bit and an alignment and i just wanna make sure springs are good enough to drive on for a while and that i wont need coil overs.

I'm on Stechs I don't mind them however the rear is sitting a little lower than I would like (for my wheel set up) you should have no problems with them at all. in fact, you really don't need coil overs if you don't plan on adjusting your height constantly. If I were you I would simply add some Koni sport shocks rather than moving to coil overs. If you plan on going to coil overs don't by some cheap *** chinese **** coils....if you're going to do it, do it right! Good luck and happy modding. just my .02

You only need rear camber and toe. I had these on my car for over 20k and never installed front camber and was fine. Get an alignment and install rear camber and toe and you'll be fine. Don't waste money on something that isn't necessary and has potenital to break

Depends on your camber, tire size and how low you are.

245/30/20 in front and 275/30/20 in rear. Where can I pick up some rear camber toe? Any recommendations on brands?

I have and like SPC rear camber and toe. It comes together if you order the right one part number. Most have SPC

I have S techs and im running 245/30/20 on the front. My front's have ridiculous inner wear after only 6 months, I see about 2 inches of wire showing on one of the tires. Rears are fine with the spc rear camber kit/toe bolt. So... I flipped my tires, and getting an alignemnt today. I may possibly be getting front camber kit if my fron't isnt fixed.
