Wheel alignment
I have a question about alignment. I'm currently running on my TT rims and what to do an alignment, however I have a set of 19's that I haven't put on just yet because of weather. So the question is if I align my car with the TT's on it will I have to align it again once I put the 19's? Oh yeah I'm dropped on Tokico illuminas shock/spring combo for a Supra.

I've always wondered the same thing. When I lowered my GS on Teins with the stock 17's, I was at 2 finger gap. Now that I have 20's, I'm at 1/2 finger gap. I'm not entirely sure whether that result was because of a change in the suspension geometry or just because the 20's filled up the wheelwell better, or maybe a bit of both.

If you are throwing on the 19's pretty soon, I would just hold off on the alignment. That is what I did with my 20's. The car had been lowered on the 17's for about 1 1/2 months before I purchased the 20's, then I had the alignment done. I inspected the tires and there was very very minimal camber wear.
