First of all what is the max drop i can do to my car in order to not have to worry about camber kit. Will i also need new shocks and struts? When people talk about struts does that include strut bars? If not what's the difference?
Max drop I would suggest is 1.5-2" for good tire wear. But on stock shocks you are going to regret the ride. OEM shocks were not meant to handle higher increased spring rates of most aftermarket springs. Struts are another form of shocks.
I suggest to get new aftermarket shocks when you upgrade your springs to lowering springs or coilovers.
