Put the springs and the wheels on and then go to a performance alignment shop and get an alignment done. You won't believe the difference.

Well what springs do you have first of all?

Because different springs will drop the car to various heights. But once you put the springs on, definitely have the car aligned. You will not need camber bolts unless you plan on changing the rear camber. The alignment shop should be able to adjust the front camber to your liking. You will feel a difference. Also more camber will also mean that your tires will wear a lot quicker on the inside than on the outside.
