whats the safest i can lower my 97 240sx? i heard if you lower cars 2 inches or more you have to buy a camber kit to adjust the alignment... is that true?im planning to buy springs for my car soon, or should i just get coilovers?

if you lower your car at all, i would strongly sugest an alignment, and if you lower it alot, you will need that camber kit

once you lower your car you'll need camber kit. i have springs that are not even 1" drop, i already see my tires wearing.

im planning on lowering it about 1.5 inches... i will definitely get an alignment after. i know the tires will wear much more quicker, gotta be some consequences when u lower your car... would i be better off buying coilovers instead?
