Depends on how much lower you plan to go and your budget, but you'll most likely need something to correct the camber. For front, if your coilovers don't come with camber plates then you'll need some camber bolts at least. For the rear there's no camber adjustment so you'll need control arms, or whiteline KCA326 which is ia PITA to adjust.

Yes a good set of tires and an alignment then after a week after your suspension settles get a corner balance

Don't the Blues come with front camber plates?
The KCA326 will be adequate if you don't plan on doing adjustments very often. That is, set and forget but they only offer +/-0.75º camber.
