i was wanting to know if anyone has had problems with alignment issues after lowering it that the shops cant fix? is there an aftermarket camber kit out for the 06 GS300 or what? i ask because after i had it lowered and slapped some 19s on it it was pulling to the right, well the next day i got it aligned but it still pulls. i don't know if they just suck at it or i should have waited a few weeks to do it......

generally you want to wait about 2 weeks before lowering from what I understand.

It does also depend on where you took it to be aligned... did you go to a tire shop that does 3 alignments an hour and promises to get you on the road in 20 minutes?

Go somewhere that deals in lowered cars preferabbly with some Lex background...

I just did my alignment at Budget Muffler in San Diego. Place does a great job and guy that works there is young and know his stuff about lowering cars cuz he has a Caddy CTS on bags too. Well just wanted to share.

funny but my alignment specs were off. the guy showed me the computer and after he did what he could the car still pulls to the right, getting alittle frustrated here. why does my car have problems and others dont?

mickey99us

anyone with some help yet, im almost getting so tired of the car pulling i want to put it back to stock.

Any feedback from others on the board about the pulling issue?

I recently got new tires and afterwards, I started to notice this problem as well.

I haven't had a single problem since my car has been lowered. In my opinion it actually rides better!

HKN

what he said ^^^ ... it also depends on how aggressive you want to go ... I went mild with Tein S-Techs (no the lowest on the market and not the highest either) ... no camber problem or uneven tire wear (yet that i can see, hahah, "knock on wood") and of course IT RIDES ALOT BETTER!!!!

Anyone have the Eibach Pro Kit or Tanabe Springs? i wana konw how it rides and if there is a lot of gap or not.

Tanabe's Ride Nice And Depending On Which Level Of Drop You Want The Gap Is Different....the Lowest One Almost Tuck The Wheels....

I installed the Eibach Pro Kit myself, and the car rides better than Stock. 800 miles lowered an on 19" and no issues.

well i am starting to get some inner tire wear pretty bad..i lowered my car on tanabe nf210;s last october...i have put 17k miles on them. i was told my local shop to put camber kit on it and have it realigned, my tread is at least half worn. the tire shop they could take the tires off the rim and switch sides...so outer tread becomes inner tread on opposite side and inner becomes outer. this would be an alternative to get more mileage out of the tire (pardon the pun).
is this a common practice to take the tire off, switch them, rebalance and alignment done?
