For rear camber arms, most will recommend SPL over SPC. Cost a little more, but a higher quality product. Some will say SPC is ok if you don't track your car. After looking at both styles, I went with SPL.


Don't forget the lockout kit and toe bolts

So if I just put on the springs and didn't do all these arms, and stuff how will it effect my car? I just figured 300 and boon dropped that's it oh and alignment.

Well just save up on frequent replacement of your tires.
As far as I know more expensive in the long run compared to buying the camber arms. Play now or pay later?

The toe will be off and your camber will be off. It's going to handle like crap and your tires will be toast in a thousand miles or so. You can't get alignment back into spec without the camber arms. Toe bolts are questionable, some say they can get it back to factory without them, using the stock cam bolts. Others say no. For $30, why not just get them and install while the car is up in the air.

Other than that, you're fine.

I bought used ones. Did not get toe boots or rear camber kit.. But I did get spacers for the rear (aftermarket wheels). Read camber after alignment is -2.5 which is barely noticeable and causes no extreme tire wear and my toe is within oem specs

If you are doing swift springs, theres really no need for front control arms. Get SPC or SPL rear camber arms.

I guess you can try, but I think you're going to be disappointed with results.
