No need for camber arms. As long as you get an alignment and get your toe set correctly you won't have any adverse tire wear at all.

I don't think swift springs will lower it enough for you to have to worry about that....but definitely get an alignment done, they say wait about 2 weeks for springs to settle.

I need a camber adjuster due to i'm running 295/30 on the rear. It slightly rubs when I go over dips and bumps. So when the F get lowered I will rub into the fender more that why the negative camber needed.

After you install the spring the car will camber naturally .

19x9 +38 255/35 and 19x11 +52 295/30 with Bridgestone Re050a. Re050a 295/30 is huge and a bit heavy.
