Lightbulb Eibach - longterm wear?

For people that have had them installed for over 1 or more years:

Anyone have the Eibach 'Pro'Kits with stock shox for 1year or more? Have you run into camber, tire wear or bumpy ride issues? Any strange noises?

Are alignments a must after an install? just wanna find out before I buy.

had them for about a year now....i have 18x8's on right now and no rubbing unless i got a full load in my car and trunk and hit a dip in the road....as far as cambering goes...i went to one place and they said i MIGHT need a camber kit fro the rear i think...or wuz it the front...but he didnt even take a close look so...but i dont have one and dont feel i need one....i dont have ne strange noises cuz of my professional installment ....and alignment is a MUST .....didnt align my shit for 4 months and saw major wear on my stock rims....then still didnt get it aligned and waited another 4 months to align and that also wore the insides of my tires...right front....alignment is a MUST...cant stress it enough i learned the hard way...cost me 260 bucks for the mistake (the tire had to be replaced)

i dunno about the eibach. but i have the h&r sport for about 2 years with the stock shocks and it works good. rides is tolerable. not as smooth as stock, but its good. i would say prolly like 85% the smooth ride of stock.

yes alignment is a must! i made the mistake of lower the car and did not align it, after 4 months my tire were gone. just make sure you get a 4 wheel computerize alignment. and rotate every 4-5,000 miles. you dont need a camber kit.
