350z H-Tech...

Hey guys. Im trying to lower my car and Im pretty much leaning towards the 350z techs. The main reasons being they do not require any adjustments (camber kits, shocks, ect) and the subtle drop it gives which is what Im looking for. but the only thing Im really curious about is, if I were to lower my car with the h-techs without any adjustments, would I have to worry about my tires? would it give them uneven wear? and so forth. becaue tires are not cheap and I dont want to be swapping them out all the time. thanks guy

Install, wait two weeks, get an alignment. Yes your tires will wear out faster if you don't get a camber kit, that's unavoidable.

^^ that is hard to say, depends on how you drive as well... but nothing drastic, you'll definitely have more than average wear on the inside of the tires. if you want to know whether it's cheaper to get a camber kit and save on tires or run without a kit, I'd say go with the kit. in the end, it will be cheaper

You really think the ~$700 it takes to buy and install front and rear camber kits will save money in the long run? I guess if you drive a heck of a lot.

What about a drop using these 350z's on a sedan?? An X sedan to be exact, I wanted to go with the sedan H-techs but that's a bit too conservative for me, the 350z H-techs may the best way for me to go without having to deal with a camber kit. ANy suggestions or opinions??
