ur should be fine in the front and rear with +25 in the rear. The front already comes rolled. What size tires are u running? If ur dropping more than an inch or so then I would recommend getting camber kits. If ur adding spacers then u would need to roll ur rear fenders.

if ur plan is to drop it till theres no gap between the fender and tires, that would be like around 2 inches drop all around if i remember correctly. so most likely ur going to need camber kits... and spacers.

it would be pretty hard to look at a coilover and say ok set it to right here and its going to drop you x amount. just put them on. and see where its at. if you want lower. adjust it to where you want it

^ exactly, all coils are different 2" here might be 4" on another coilover.

And for the camber arms, you don't adjust them. Your alignment guy will take care of those.

The fronts do not come rolled from factory. I'm on BC's and about 2in dropped. Yes, camber kit for both front and rear. Coils are very adjustable so go with the drop you want. I rolled fronts and rears. Have fun.

^ actually fronts are rolled from the factory...

And if doesn't plan to go very low then a front camber kit is a waste of money.

BTW, you're double posting everywhere.
