The easist way to tell if you are running cambered from your new springs and in turn will waer the inner edge of your tires out more quickly is to drive for about a mile and then using a surface thermometer take a reading from the innner edge, the centre and the outer edge. If it drops from inside to out (out being coolest) you have negative camber, if it's constant it's ok, if it's warmest on the outer edge you some how have gotten positive camber! Any change in ride height will alter the camber to the negative but dependin on how low you go will determine the degree of camber. If you don't test temps and the inner edge wears quicker, a camber kit will save you money on tires! The kit would have to be adjusted professionally unless you have a camber guage and know how to use it!
