So, im at college and the car will be coming back with me next week ( been sitting for a few months ). Should i keep the car lowered and bring it here? Or raise it up and bring it? Cause the firestone i took it to said that the car cant be aligned since its dropped 1.8in. Its been aligned for free basically, so i figure if i raise it back up, the car should be in alignment. But, ofcourse i would be sacrificing this SICK stance.

What would you do?

 

if you raise it the align will be off.....dont fix what aint broke..why do you want to raise it anyways?

 

well, in a way it is kinda broke, they cant align the car correctly because its so low, they dont know what degree the tires need to be at, so im worried about toe wear and that i'll have to replace the tires a LOT sooner than later because of un even wear.

 

What alignment specs do you have? Just because it won't reach 'factory' specs doesn't mean it will eat tires.

Take it to an alignment shop and have them take out as much camber as possible. Negative camber up to about -1.0 degree won't wear tires too bad. The most important thing is to make sure the toe is set to zero. Toe kills tires way faster than camber.

If you can get the camber under 1 degree, with zero toe, you will be fine.

 

We do lowered cars at NTB as long as we can get them on the rack. I saw just try and get it alignd with the lowered stance.

 

i'll see what i can do when i see the car again.

 

i couldnt imagine being lowered nearly 2"

 

it looks pretty sweet ^_^. i really would prefer a 1in instead though.

 

Sounds like you need to find an alignment shop that knows what they are doing. Try another place. Tell them the problems you had with the other place. Typically a business will do a better job trying to earn your business that way.

 

mine is done about two inches and like you said it is a sick stance and lloks great with 17's..I love it
