Those will get u back into camber spec. Anything in the rear over -3 is overkill from what I've read. -1.5 will have your tires wearing less than more neg camber.

Was tightening up my calipers and noticed my driver side spc is shot. No more than 2 yrs old and very minimal 'abuse' (track). Getting eibach this time around.

I had to get these to pull some neg camber out of my rear wheels. I'm lowered almost 2" and my camber was maxed at about -3* or so. I put these on and I was able to get it back to about -2* and was able to adjust the toe so the tires wouldn't wear nearly as bad.

Ok. So its sort of a must, although I'm not as low

No. Jot down your desired specs and get an alignment from a competent tech first. I'm lowered (finger gap all around) and my tech was able to get every spec the way I wanted it without coming close to maxing out.
