Default Tanabe DF210 Quessions?

Hey CL just a couple questions. Im getting my Tanabe DF210's tommorow and will be throwing them on my stock shocks. Will i have any irregular tire wear? I'm planning on getting my alignment back to oem specs as possible.
Thanks in advance

it will be slightly out of spec. get an alignment right away. i have been on df's for about 3 years with stock shocks and it still rides great. then again i have under 85k miles. i also put the rca's on the rear and it is completly in spec, front is very close, just like 1 degree of neg camber.

If you get an alignment, no worries.

Almost everyone on the forums have some sort of suspension work done and everyone is happy for the most part. Any updates? Did you throw your springs on?

Im on DF210, the cameber is out by 1 degree in front and about 2.5 degree in rear on KYB socks. Rides nice, looks good just make sure all your balljoints are still tight.
