Need Help - Spring Questions

So I am about to order Springs and have a shop install them.

I'm hearing mixed things about what's needed though. I understand I need an alignment but I'm also hearing that I need to purchase a front and rear camber kit.

Can any of you tell me if this is actually needed or if any of you have springs without the camber kits?

I was looking at

S-TEINS which is 2.2 front and 1.8 rear
Swifty (not sure what the actual drop is on this)
Eibach Sportline 1.7 front and 1.6 rear
Eibach Pro 1.2 and 1.2

I also needed to buy replacement steering stabilizer links as the stock ones had to be cut off they were so rusted on. Maybe yours will come off. (2010 RA SB)

I have the Eibach Pro-Kit installed with no camber kits needed. If you are looking for a good drop and a flush look go with something that lowers more than the Pro-Kit but yes def get an alignment.
