Red face Coilovers nd Camber kit

Hey guys im planning on dropping my car so I need some help deciding on some good coilovers under $1500 so if anyone can give me some advice id appreciate it, and i want to get a camber kit too. Im leaning more towards TEIN. I was looking at the TEIN CR-T but dont know if its any good.

you don't need camber kit, unless you are going with some crazy camber set up. How do you think they adjust camber on stock car that don't have camber kit?

Absolutely NOT necessary for drops up to or slightly over one inch.

How low do you plan to go? The range of camber adjustment is already more than sufficient for a drop of a little over an inch. Even up to two inches, I'd suggest having a good shop try to align the car to the specs you want, before spending money on parts you might not need. By the time the stock range of adjustment runs out, the front strakes are likely to be scraping the ground.

I am super low on Megan racing track coils and do not run spacers. From what I have heard they are not necessary and I have had no problems for over 10k miles so far. Also I had my car aligned by a shop that specializes in lowered vehicles and they got it right on what I wanted -1 up front -2 in back with no need for a camber kit.
