I'm going to get the Ford "C" Springs, do I need to buy caster/camber plates? I'm hoping someone with either the "C" springs or the Steeda Sport springs chimes in with experience.

No sir. Most people only get C/C plates if they are lowering their car close to 2" or just want the added reassurance.

YES!--you do need CC plates with Ford "C" springs or you will be replacing tires every 10,000 miles like me!!!

How would the car ride if I didn't get shocks and struts yet? I don't have a lot of money, but I really want to lower the car.

I have had the C springs on my car since May and just got an alignment a little over a week ago. The rears didn't need touching and the fronts needed a slight adjustment. No C/C plates for me.
