No camber kit needed when a car is droped, but the inside part of your tires will wear out a lot faster from the negative camber..so you decide camber kit or new tires every 6 months..

What about with eibach sportlines 1.4''? you need camber kit with it? if so where do you buy it at?

Everytime a car is lowered even if it's only an inch, you are changing its factory specs and alignment

As for Sportlines, I have no idea, try google

No they are not...camber kits are only required for 1 inch or more. The HFP suspension is .8 inch

As for Sportsline, I suggest the camber kit. I rather buy camber kit for $250 and not changing tires for $200 every 5-6 months.
