Default Camber Bolts with 2/3 drop

I just recently purchased the djm 2/3 lowering kit. Do I need a new camber bolt for this little bit of drop?

looking for the same thing most people say yes but i did alignments for a while (not many lowered cars though) and I've seen stock vehicles be way out and a few of the lowered ones were perfect without them. All really depends how worn your other suspension parts are and tire size no way to be sure till its on the rack.

When you put the drop on youll see your camber change to around -1.5 to -2*. Are eccentrics really necessary, no you can run it without them and on a track -2* is the good stuff, but youll be wearing your front tires jdmasfck style with out them on the street.
