this is what she looks like at the moment, excuse the stock wheels she will have the killers back on when the weather is nicer. P.S. why would i need camber bolts my wheels look fine as far as camber is concerned

Thats exactly how mine looked and never settled Camber bolts may be needed on some. Firestone couldn't get them properly aligned unless I used some caber bolts. Good thing I had lifetime alignment or I'd be screwed there.
Since you lowered it it no longer sits at factory height. Things get misaligned and what not. Your engine also leans further back now. Thats why shorter dogbones are used also. Same thing about the front axle isn't aligned straight and shorter dogbones help that also.
I forgot most of the details though. Everything about lowering can be found here with some time and searching. Here are two of my threads:

Good luck

Question for you.
Now it could be a stupid question, I haven't lowered my car. Aren't the front and rear springs different heights to begin with? Perhaps the wrong springs were put on the wrong end of the car?

i thought of that also and even though i havent taken them off (the weather sucks here) they look the same as ZZPs picture of their drop in assembly wider gap and wider seat springs on the rear with the fixed mount, tighter narrower seat spring in the front with the swivle mount

you need to give them a chance to settle.
the fronts are way stiffer than the back because of the engine, but the rears are also going to take a while to settle because there is no weight back there to help them settle.
remember, these are BRAND NEW struts and springs, its not like you're lifting up your stock struts and springs and lowering it again where it'll drop in a day or two again.
