If i lower my car.....

The front camber is definitely way out because there is no factory camber adjustment.

^^best springs..? dont you guys learn? -___- this is subjective 
as for how much it costs? that differs too
if you get h techs then you shouldnt need a camber kit so itll be cheaper
if you drop it more than 1" youll want/need a camber kit which will cost more
springs themselves starts at 140ish and can get up another bill or so
installation ranges from 150-225
each setup is different...

To the original poster. If you lower your car more than an inch you'll want to think about getting camber kits, front and rear, if not all then the rear for sure. If you want to be buying tires every 12-15k miles then you can lower the car more than an inch without getting camber kits. The struts will hold up for quite a while if you dont lower it more than an inch. If you totally drop it, they might last up to 20k miles... MIGHT. Look into tokico D-spec shocks if you dont want to get coilovers.

I let the springs settle for more than 2000 miles, when I needed new tires I had the car alligned. Before the allignment the camber was -2.4 in the front and -1.3 in the rear. After the allignment the camber was -1.6 in the front (-1.5 is spec) and -1.0 in the rear (right at spec). Before the allignment the car handled great, but had terrible tire wear, afterwards, the car still handles great but not as well. However, the tire wear is much, much better. Trust me, I did my research.
