The only reason you might need the pillow mounts is if your rubber mounts are totaly hard and cracking. Adjustable camber pillow mounts might be a good idea if your camber is too far out after installing new suspension. I just put Tokico HB's and Tanabe GF210 springs in with the stock mounts, and everything is fine. I'd recommend putting in new springs with those shocks, if you havn't already. If you're still running factory springs, they're most likely warn out.
