Unless you require more negative camber for your own personal requirements, get the camber kits. Uncontrolled toe will chew up your tires just as fast, as well.

If you wish to lower your car and improve on the handling aspects, I would go with the Tein Basic set-up. There are much better coilover kits available. However, unless you plan to track your car much, as Hero has always commented, the Tein Basic set-up will be more than adequate to satisfy the majority of people.
In any of the above loose scenarios, I would highly recommend getting a camber kit(s) and an alignment to extent tire wear.

Depending on your current suspension set-up, you may blow out your shocks prematurely with the S-Techs. With that in mind, you may opt to mate the lowering springs with a good pair of adjustable shocks, such as the Tokico D-spec.

Conscons, I have no current pics with the Tein Basic set-up, yet. However, I will have a few pics after our Santa Cruz III run, next week. I will PM you the pics or you can simply go over to the Nor Cal boards and see the post run pics. I am currently lower 1" all around, as compared to the original factory height, which is a tight 1 finger gap . . . And there is plenty of adjustment to go lower, if I so desire.

if its a lease i wouldnt touch it ... but if your gonna go to the lowering route .. i would get coilovers ... they are better and they will be 100 times easier to replace .. due to the fact you just swap out the whole strut .. instead of decompressing the springs and putting on the stock ones back and etc
