I just swapped out my OEM springs for the Eibach Prokit. This was done last Thursday. So far I have drove probably around 260 miles on the Eibach springs.

I have found inconsistent answers on when it's the best time to get an alignment done. Some say to get it done right away and others from a week to 4 weeks after install. Would I be okay to get an alignment done by this Thursday? I think I have put enough miles on the springs for them to "settle" in. I would appreciate any advice. Thanks!

imho 1-2 weeks of normal driving is more than enough

If possible, immediately, and then again a few weeks down the road... when the car was lowered, camber, caster and probably toe have all changed well beyond acceptable limits and can cause bad tire wear quite quickly...

If you only want to do it once, a week is more than enough...

Thanks! Hopefully you can help me out on this. I just got an alignment done today by a Toyota dealership near my work.

The specs look odd to me, or doesn't seem right. I don't know much about this except from just searching and reading what other poeople have talked about their alignment specs. Here are my specs, and this only on the Eibach Prokit springs on stock shocks:

Front
Left
Caster 5 46'
Camber -0 34'
Toe 0 05'
Right
Caster 7 27'
Camber -0 43'
Toe 0 04'

Rear
Left
Camber -2 00'
Toe 0 09'
Right
Camber -1 43'
Toe 0 08'

Thrust Angle 0 01'


Doesn't the camber measurements seems to be a bit off in the rear? I would appreciate any help anyone can provide on this. Thanks!

I'm surprised it doesn't pull... caster on the front is a big variance...

also, rear camber is out of whack a little, but may be all they can do, being its lowered...
