Camber Correction
Before I got my WRX, I had a 95 Mitsubishi Eclipse. I had lowered it with Neuspeed Springs. The one problem I had with it was there was no camber correction on the car, and wheels would tow in. I would go through tires like water. Is this a problem I will have with the WRX by lowering it? Can the camber be adjusted by just getting it aligned, or do they sell a camber correction kit for it? I hate to go through tires every 8,000 miles like my Eclipse. Any help would be appreciated.

You need an alignment after replacing struts or springs. Should be the same on the Talon, did you ever get an alignment after lowering?
Front camber is adjustable, rear is not. Depending on how much you drop it, the rear may not be a problem. You can always get camber bolts for the rear to alleviate the issue, they're well under $50.
The only reason you should be going through tires in 8k is if you autocross every weekend or something.
If you drive aggressively, have them add MORE negative camber on the front over the factory specs (~ -1.0 or so instead of the factory -0.3) it will help keep the tires wearing a bit more evenly and provide better grip in the corners.

i had a eclipse before, i lowered it. It bought camber bolts and adjusted them fine. I believe even the rear has stock camber bolts
hehe. Also depending on the spring you get on the wrx. I know some that dont even require you to change the camber. Everything can be done using stock bolts good luck!
