Car Info: 04' wrx
Camber question

I have an 04' wrx. I want to buy the eibach pro kit. Front lowered 1.3", and rear 1". Will i need to get camber adjustments for front and rear and will i need to have it aligned? For now these springs will be on stock struts. I really don't know alot about suspension so i am kind of scared. I don't want to run through tires just because i'm stupid and i don't wan to hurt the car. Does anyone have this setup now? Any suggestions or info is appreciated. Also i am planning on getting a perrin rear swaybar and endlinks. Is there anything special i need to know there. Thanks in advance.

i have the pro kit on my '02, and i recommend getting the car aligned after having the springs done. there's no need for camber adjustments.

I have the Eibach springs on my 04 WRX. I agree with fanker. Got get an alignment. As for the camber goes you can go with out it, but I rather be safe than sorry so i bought some camber bolts from www.tirerack.com. I got the shop that was doing my alignment to put on the camber bolts onto the rear too.

You should always get a good alignment after any sort of suspension mods. In fact, you should probably get an alignment done if you haven't done any mods- factory alignment specs are pretty vague.
