camber kit...worth it or not??

so i dropped my car last week. about 1.5in drop front/rear. now I am thinking about not going for the rear camber kit, but what do you guys think? How many miles do you think i can get out of my tires, without the camber kit. I dont drive my car hard EVER. i drive like an old lady, and corner very slow. So knowing that how many miles you guys think i can get?? thanks

Yes you should invest in a camber kit it is not about how hard you drive your car it is the fact that the suspension geometry is different to where it will not align within factory spec

You can always try to figure out how many sets of tires it will take to make the camber kit pay off and make an economic decision.

How much do you drive?

A rear camber kit is cheap but assuming staggered wheels, considering how cheap front tires are it takes ~3-4 tires just to buy the front kit and ~2 tires for the rear. And that is with tires for 20's.

Then, you still want to run some negative camber for performance so how long will it take you to make up what you spent on the camber kit?
