I actually just lowered my car on sportlines a week or so ago and I have an appointment tomorrow to get an alignment and camber bolts if needed. According to the shop, they said just an alignment should take care of it, but in rare cases they have had to use bolts.

Bolts that adjust the camber = "camber kit"

Haha its all good. I will be anxious to see if I need them or not tomorrow. Hopefully just an alignment will take care of everything.

You guys should be ok. My friends that are lowered just needed an alignment. No bolts needed. They have 2.4s and 2.0s.

I flirted with the idea of not even getting it done, but I figured to be on safe side, I would get it checked.

I am also getting them to check a squeak in the rear that I just got after installing the springs.

some alingments are fine afterwards, some need an alignment afterwards, and some need even more than just an alignment (like me)

So I went and got my car aligned today, and did not need camber bolts.
