Alignment, I would take it to Miami chassis, its around 300 bucks but they make sure everything is fixed and on point. The rear toe

will for sure be fixed, I've seen what they do to my other friend's car.

nicely done...

great choice on miami chassis. i've used them before on my integra and g20t. excellent work

WHEN ITY SETTLES YOU WILL BE SURPRISED HOW MUCH BETTER IT WILL LOOK. iTS LOWER THAN MY RIDE ON THE TEIN H TECHS. i AM STILL HAPPY WITH THE COMPROMISE MY SPRINGS GIVE. WHAT LOOKS GOOD OUTSIDE THE CAR DOESNT FEEL GOOD INSIDE THE CAR. I THINK ITS PERFECT THE WAY IT IS. pLUS ADD IN A FEW 10THS FOR SETTLING AT i THINK YOU WIL;L BE HAPPY. DONT WISH FOR COILOVERS JUST YET

that looks NICE!!! i like that! it gives it that sporty look with out taking anything away! love the look! i didnt think rims like that would come out good on lighter colored cars! but i was wrong. i have the same color so now i have a bigger selection of rims to choose from.

hope that helps, it didnt really settle much IMO. less then half an inch. after my alignment it was raised up more then when i had 1st lowered it. Miami Chassis did a different type of alignment that fixed the toe so it doesn't wear as much tire. Some how it raised it up, but its not too bad now.

Car looks sick man, it floss great and the drop is perfect. If i just looked at those wheels, i would have never thought they would've looked that good on the car but man they do it justice. Great Choice! Holla!
