I kinda agree with the OP... a lot of people on this forum think that the Z is such an expensive car that anyone that doesn't buy $2,000 tires doesn't belong driving the car. Realistically the Z is NOT that expensive of a sports car. You can buy a used 09 for low 20s now, even fully loaded new you aren't talking much more than high 30s low 40s which isn't outrageous.
I don't personally think there is anything wrong with the OP buying springs that might result in a less likely chance of needing a camber kit. If he ends up needing one he is then faced with the dilema of ruining tires or buying the kit but if it is worth the risk to him so be it. I personally plan on buying springs or coils, checking my alignment and then deciding whether or not I need a camber kit.
OP I think your question has been answered... the lower the drop the more likely you'll need the kit... has nothing to do with brand, just drop size. Swifts seem to be the limit, anything with a shorter drop you should probably be able to get away with, just keep an eye on your tire wear for uneven-ness (is that a word?).

I apologize. I worded it wrong.
All Im trying to say is that Camber kits are something that should be bought either way. Its not that expensive, and what is the point in getting the vehicle lowered, and then potentially having to pay for an alignment twice with the added cost of the camber kit just to see if the vehicle can be put back into spec.
