Default K2 motoring front/rear alignment combo

Hey guys, I'm going to be installing tanabe gf210 springs and have heard mixed feelings about whether adjustable front a-arms, rear camber arms, and toe bolts are all needed to regain alignment specs. I spotted this combo in my search and the price was lower than most front control arms alone

http://www.k2motor.com/03-08-nissan-350z-front-and-rear-adjustable-camber-kit.html.

Do those of you with experience in suspension see it as a neccesity or a more of a "couldn't hurt" given the 1.2" drop of the tanabes? And has anyone used those products from K2 or can speak as to their quality? Thanks for the help!

With that much drop you'll need to upgrade.

I'd go with a different camber kit. Something doesn't seem right about that one.

I'd love to see how those front arms are even adjustable - based on the picture, they look like steel triangles. They say they include spherical bearings, not from those pictures they don't

Looks like an SPC knock off or rebadged SPC.

Thanks for the input. I'm still a little new to the Z platform and want to make sure I do it right the first time and learn as much as I can in the process. While Im thinking about it, does anyone know how much lower the Nismo v2 replica bumpers sit compared to stock? That'll be the next step after the drop and dont want to have it sitting a hair width above the pavement sitting still.
