Need Quick info on Dropping g35X

I just got my 2008 G35x AWD about a month ago.
Already got my 19s on it , but now i need a drop !

I previously had a Dodge Charger and i had dropped it with EibachLoweringSprings.
I'm planning on going with the same product for my X.

What im wondering about right now , caus i see a couple of old threads about this , do i really need to buy camber alignement kits ? why?

I don't feel like spending extra $$$ for something that doesn't matter much.

I'm in the same boat as you. I got yes and no answers from searching the board. And I got mixed yes and no answers from talking to parts suppliers. I decided that I'm going to save my money and not get it and see how it goes. As long as toe is good, which is should be. And I'll see how bad camber is and even if its not great on paper after the alignment I'm not going to panic and order any kits. I'm going to see how wear goes. And even if there is some, I'll do some tire rotating before I resort to camber kits. I have 19x9 summers and OEM 17x7.5. All square non-staggered so I'll have some options for rotating. My springs are going to be here early next week. A week later I'll get an alignment and I'll post something on how that worked out for me.

Got an alignment today for my X. I am dropped on swift springs (1" rear and 1.3" front) rear is in spec now but I would need a front camber kit because the front cAmber cannot be adjusted at all from factory (this is what the mechanic told me)

I have 370z front springs (lowered ~1"). I have noticeable camber and inboard tire wear issues. SPC camber kit is on its way.
