depends on the springs, I personally would STRONGLY RECOMMEND new struts/shocks because you'll end up replacing them shortly anyways

no, not unless it is totally fucked. but if you lowering your car, means you are doing some serious driving, then you need some negative camber. just keep your toe in check, you shuold be straight.
