Anything less than a 2" drop you really don't need a camber kit. You just want to make sure you get an alignment soon after you drop your car since toe also changes which can wear your tires pretty fast.

You should watch out for speed bumps, steep driveways, and potholes. Also you may have problems getting your car on lifts unless you bring 2x4s with you.

Yes good advise always keep some 2x4's or something similar so that if you have a flat tire etc you can get the jack under your car.

No you won't. It's going to obviously give you little negative camber, but more than likely not anything outside of factory specs.
