for those with BC coilovers

I plan on getting these but got a couple questions:

1. The shop told me that these coilovers have front camber adjustments on them already so there is no need for a front camber kit, only a rear. Can anyone validate this?

2. Did you guys get a basic alignment? or alignment + corner balancing done?

thanks in advance

this is my buddies shop that told me this so i took his word for it. i figured they were a fan of BC coilovers since one of their cars are sponsored by them.

A lot of people seem to be running them though and the price seems fair. Any particular reason you are against them?

bc coils are still at the top of my list as they offer linear springs, custom rates and rear extenders at a bargain price. there are many people out there who have run them without issue so take that with a grain of salt.

Yeah.Thanks for adding. I'm checking with them to see if they'll have coil-overs for the vert in the future. No response yet though.
