i got my springs in today and was curious about two things
1)do I need an Alignment once installed?
2) how bad actually is the camber from the springs and should I wait until I get camber plates before installing
Thanks!

Yeah, you'll definitely need an alignment. Camber can be adjusted to a limited extent with the current hardware, so the camber plates likely aren't necessary.

An alignment is recommended. I installed my D2 springs almost a week ago. I didnt get an alignment yet and its been fine so far.

Always get an alignment after suspension install. Not so much for the camber, bc that’s not what really destroys tires as bad as your +/- Toe settings. If your toe settings are out of whack and aren’t right, you will chew through your tires quick! If your toe settings are spot-on and close to nominal zero, your tires can still go a very long time with 3° or less of camber. Getting closer to under 2° or less of camber is more ideal however. :thumbsup:
