sounds like a solid set up

kyb agx's teamed with RB springs are a popular set up and the rb sways eliminate virtually any left body roll.

with just a 1" drop it won't affect tire wear. The rear's need the dtss eliminator bushings and they sit better.

if you have the money i say go for it. if you have the money, it will probably equal out in the end, and then you have more room to work with if you end up changing your suspension in the future. the only thing is that the camber kits can be a little pricey if you didnt factor them in for cost already.

You'll need a rear camber adjust rod to dial out the negative camber in the rear.

I dunno what you want from us, but almost any suspension upgrade will make the car corner better.

Just stay away from the Intrax stuff.
