Default Lowering my suspension.

I really wanna lower my car. I have a mazda3 4-door 2010 but i dont really know much about lowering cars. I wanna drop it like betwen 1" or 1.5".
I had in mind Eibach Pro Kit Lowering Springs and a camber kit to not wear out the tires.
what would be the best option for my car? would i need something else?
thanks

There is a picture of my car.

you would'nt need much else, but once you get the springs put in you will need to drive the car for a couple days then get an alignment. personaly i would never put just springs in my car, they will take travel out of your strut and put more pressure on them possibly causing them to sag more on one side than the other. sketchy, save your money and get coilovers.

Default 2013 Mazda 3 lowering springs

Just lowered my 2013 mazda3 and it needs an alignment but the guy at the tire shop told me i might need some other adjustable components for it. All i did was put springs on, and I know I need to replace my struts cause they are going bad, but does anyone know what other parts i might need for when i do the alignment??
