Hotchski Sway Bars or Front Camber Kit???

I recently just got tein basic installed. My order for the spc rear camber kit has just arrived. Here's the problem, I want sway bars but should I get the front camber kit first because of uneven tire wear. Is the camber kit necessary for the fronts?

...depends how much you are dropped and for bad your negative camber is...

if it's really bad...well then get the a-arms. if it's not bad, go with the sway bars...

front camber correction kits are only "necessary" if you can't live with uneven tire wear. at that point, you have to decide how quickly they will wear depending on how much negative camber you've gone and your driving patterns.

I'm dropped at 1.5in. in the fronts. How bad is tire wear compared to the rear?

Priorities first.

You have a 1.5 inch drop, so the camber kit is a "must" in my opinion.

I plan on buying the camber kit & coilovers at the same time to be exact, when the time comes.

Haven't got it aligned yet. I want to install the rear camber first. But its also pending on my decision to do the fronts also. Saving my tires would benefit me in the long run. I guess front camber it is.
