if you're not going lower than 1.5", I've seen people get away with it without C/C plates and still have even tire wear.

Otherwise, you'd just need an alignment.

I have Motive 3.90's and I saw one other guy on here also got 3.90's from them and we all have extreme whining. He got his installed at 3 different places thinking it was the quality of labor, but it still whined.

It could just be a 3.90 thing from Motive.

I've never heard what the gear whining actually sounds like...does it sound like a blower or something bad...also I have a fairly loud exhaust so I little whine may add a little character...whats it sound like(the whine)?

I have a loud exhaust too with LOTS of interior resonance and the whining is still annoying! The whine sounds like a constant howl. It is nothing like supercharger whine.

but YES you need camber plates with almost any spring. i am an alignment tech and i have seen many stock mustangs that cant go into spec with the stock plates.

I have the steeda springs, but would recomend the caster/camber plates with most drops. Diffinetly won't hurt and get a good alignment.
