Default Do I really need Megan/SPC rear camber arm to run on Air?

Looking for someone to pitch in for me. I'm dropping my 2IS on air with airrex struts and I want to maximize my tire tread (avoiding as much as camber as possible).

Is there any value installing a set of rear megan or SPC camber arms?

Thanks!

Value in installing them...of course! Maximizes tire life with a proper alignment.

Thanks for the response Gville350.

Can you elaborate some more for my understanding?

I mean, can't I just do an alignment after installing the struts by using the factory camber arms to maximize tire life? Or does the megan/SPC camber arms offer something more than the factory camber arms?

There is no camber adjustment in the factory suspension.

Just a heads up there is no camber adjustments on the front or rear. Depending on how low you go you will need to get either SPC ball joints or Megan UCA's on the front to get back to factory specs.
