Lowering and Rear Camber Kit

So i plan on getting springs for my car, I already have front camber kits installed but i don't have the back ones.

The coupe is already factory lowered in the back by a couple more inches than the front.

So do i need to install the rear camber kits as well, or will the tires be fine since its already lowered in the rear.

Im guessing that springs wont effect it that much more than the factory rear suspension.

post pics of your before and after if you have them.

i'm lowered on H&R coilovers and have crash bolts in front and camber kit in the rear.

my advice is to go to a place where they can give you a spec sheet of how your car sits before alignment, then you can decide if and how you want to adjust the rear.

here is where i went when adjusting mine:
