Lowering Springs Question

Sooo I'm thinking about getting some lowering springs for my LSJ. Is that all I need, just the springs? Or will I need aftermarket struts? Camber kit? Or what

Ok cool. My front struts are popping anyways so ill replace them at least. Will I have the inside tire wear? If so, will I need a camber kit to prevent that?

How low do you intend on going? With my CM springs I just got an alignment done.

if you have to put new stuts, new springs, you might as well go buy coilovers. you can get slighty used coilovers for 800. springs, and new struts will be around the same.

This is true, but depending on if he wants handling or more low.
