I had the same issue after I put my FR C springs in.
Didnt need camber plates but I noticed when I run my 275-40-17 on Cobra R wheels my car is out of control on bumps or wavey roads.
When I run my stockers (99 Pony wheels stock tire size) it drives pretty normal.

I think its a combo of wider tires and needing bumpsteer kit for my issue.

Id start with the bumpsteer kit as stated above from other members ,im not sure what tire size youre running but also consider that also if bumpsteer kit didnt solve issue completely.
