Being new to our G community you should have read all the stickys to begin and then rather than making a thread used our SEARCH function. Your question has already been answered a gazillion times. If you lower your coupe any amount you'll need a camber kit front and back unless your Dad owns a tire shop. Lowering with Tein S Techs and total camber kit is roughly $1200 incl alignment. Add another $500 if you do the same job with quality coilovers like BCs....now go read the sticky!

You'll need both the front and rear camber kits, not to mention the rear toe kit to get that back into spec as well. With your drop, you'll be at -2.2* camber all around. While it isn't much, it will show a wear pattern after about 5k miles - but it is unnecessary camber for the time being. If you want - but it's the cheap, lazy, and neglecting way to go - make sure you have symmetrical tires and flip them from side to side every 5k to even out the wear pattern - however, your tire life will still stuffer.
If you're keeping your OEM Rays for the time being with the drop, it would be wise to invest in 25/30mm spacers all around to give it a better appearance. Stock wheels + camber = super sunk, and it looks awkward having a drop like that and so sunken in.

And looking at 500$ for SPC F&R camber kits so its not that bad..
