Default Camber Needed

Thought/advice please... Will be purchasing Megan LP Series Coilovers by the end of the month is a camber kit needed for a 06 IS350 RWD? Originally was going to purchase one and was told wouldn't need one. Thanks.

basically depends on your set ride height and what you're trying to accomplish.

but if it's nothing that hasn't been seen before, then no, you won't need it.

most people don't NEED the camber kit, only if you're running something aggressive.

A few inches, as in 3"? I'm at a 2.5" drop and at 2.8 degree rear negative camber. No excessive wear issues on the tires here, but you being at 3" you'll rub your wheel liners to death up front.
