What to use?

I lowered my car recently with a set of Tein S-Techs. I will be looking to get it aligned in the near future. I was looking at the camber correction bolts because they are inexpensive, but would eventually like to go with some Tien plates in front and back. I am mainly looking to correct the camber so my new tires do not wear out too fast. What is the best way to go with this? What do I need to get it back into proper alignment?

I did a little bit of searching so far, and found that maybe I don't need anything. I can go and get it aligned. Can anyone confirm this? I will continue searching, but all input is welcome.

S-techs are all for show, getting it aligned is one thing, how it handles and correcting for bump-steer and the suspension geometry is another. By Tein plates I'm assuming you mean camber plates, those are not necessary. If you don't care about handling performance you can get it aligned and get it somewhat near stock settings. There are plenty of threads on S-techs, I personally don't recommend them as they will wear out your stock shocks quickly.

I have noticed a difference in the handling a little bit at normal driving speeds, and it becomes more noticable at freeway speeds. Yes I did mean camber plates. I am not all to concerned about handling performance at the moment. The car is just a daily driver. Tire wear is the main concern. I think some nice coilovers are in the future for me.
