heres my current set up with NO camber kit
03 sedan, im lowered on Tanabe Sustec DF210 Lowering Springs (2.5 inches drop)
my wheels are MRR GT-5 20x8.5 +35 front and 20x10 +45 rear
I did alignment at the same shop I always do because they know there suff!!! I have no problems yet and its been almost a year, no uneven/unusual wear what so ever.
im pretty sure that the tein S specs are around the same drop, someone correct me if im wrong

PICS!!! lol...
as for the Camber no camber kit, +1 on the car by car basis, i guess it depends on your "setup" and how fat u are. or if u roll with fat chicks in the backseat. JK..of if ur car has a massive stereo system that weighs a ton, rim size.tire size setup. etc...
i too, get contradicting statements on this board as well...2 sides to every story i guess.
only way to find out is try it out for yourself...guess check ur tires for wear..if its not a big deal. keep it as is, if its bothering you, get a camber kit.
NOW lets see some before after pics!!!!

So these are the pics of my S tech drop. I couldn't do a DIY as the install went off course. I had to focus on finishing it before it got too late and so I couldn't take the right pics. Sorry. PM me for any questions about the install though. I can even do installs for people in the SOCAL area. Coilovers and springs. PM me about that too.
hey can the mods please move this to the picture share section? Thanks.
BTW I'm not posting a DIY, just some pics of the drop and my black roof.
BEFORE (front):
BEFORE (rear):
entire car (after drop):
Black roof from rear (w/ drop):
BTW guys, these springs have only been on for 3 days at the time of these pictures, so they might settle further and cause the car to lower more. The ride is honestly no different for me, and it's as rough as it always was (I have sport tuned suspension).
