    It depends on how much camber you want.

        Being a IE Stg 3 user for a few years now, I agree with this belief. My previous suspension utilized H&R Sport springs and the front actually sat a bit lower than it does now.

        You'd be better off with getting sways and playing with tire pressures.

                    Absolutely. If the car is a daily driver as well and you do your own alignments why not? Let alone the fact that a better contact patch is safer on the streets while DDing.
                    Unless you don't mind driving on crappy tires all the time that will wear badly.
