Hmm, I wonder if bags of gravel would be more effective.
But on a serious note OP, with most drops and a semi-aggressive offset wheels, 20 inch especially, you will want the fender roll. If it's a money issue, don't continue modding unless it can be done right.

A camber kit wouldn't fix premature wear. Don't know where you get yer info from. Toe causes premature wear not camber. Camber is responsible for uneven wear. No wonder you can't understand my advice, you don't know anything about cars.

The only way to lower your G without having a camber kit is if Dad & Mom own a tire store! Even with the best alignment you'll be eating tires every 10K miles. Compare the cost of tires that often against buying a camber kit! The best way to lower your car is with coilovers which will give you ride adjustment. Just installing springs you'll end up needing shocks anyway so stepping up to BC coilovers is the smartest way.

I have them on 2 from soft in the front and 15 (right in the middle) in the back and its pretty brutal on bad roads or around potholes

Here we go again
I have an 05 G coupe and I'm sitting on 20's. 20x8.5 and 20x10's (off set is 20). I'm lowered on a set of Tanabe NF210 lowering springs that give a 1 inch drop in the front and a .60 inch drop in the rear. I've been on this setup for almost 2 years. I'm running 255 35 20's in the front and 275 30 20's rear. I'll be switching to 285 whenever the 275's wear out. As for a camber kit, you may not need one since the drop is mild. I check my front and rear tires at least twice a week or more and NO SIGNS OF THE INNER TIRES WEARING OUT PREMATURELY. The rear is fine also. I'm running on Falken PT-722 all season ultra high performance tires (they're ok tires) . Instead of rolling my fenders, I'm going to have a small portion of the rear fender lip cut because the rear rubs just a little over some bumps but, not all the time. I've seen my brother do this on one of his cars and when it's done right, it's better than rolling the fenders you don't have to worry about chipping the paint and since the tires will have more clearance, their's no worrying about the fender cutting into the tires. What I would do is this. If you're going for a mild drop than do what I did and order the Tanabe NF210's, get an alignment and see how your inner front and rear tires hold up. If you need a camber kit later, buy one but, if you don't why spend money on something you may not need. Put that money on another mod. I wish I could sticky this somewhere for those wondering if they need a camber kit on a mild drop. One more thing with the mild drop I have my coupe looks crazy hot and my rims are Rennen C-10's. They look way better in person.
