Anytime you lower your car you will want to have a 4 wheel alignment to correct the steering geometry. Most of the time you will have to correct the camber in both the front and rear wheels. Make sure you have the kit(s) with you when you get an alignment. Hope this helps.

I have the $15 camber mod and my car is lowered about 1.5 inches and my camber is within stock specs. Before I installed the camber mod I was going through tires every 3 months.

Check out the camber mod page here.

How long ago did you lower the car? You should wait 4-6 weeks after you lower it for the springs to settle to their designated point. If you dont you will end up correcting the camber all over again.
