Default Rear Lower Control Arm Relocation Brackets Question?

My suspension upgrades are Eibach PRO-KIT Performance Springs,Spohn Rear Lower Control Arms, Spohn Torque Arm,Spohn Subframe Connectors.

My question is should I installed Rear Lower Control Arm Relocation Brackets
since my car is lowered due to the springs?

Best 60' time is 1.65 car hooks fine and straight.

I would definitely look into using lower control arm relocation brackets, with the lower springs you have lowered the front mounting point for the lower control arm on the chassis so with the relocation brackets you can add some positive anti-squat into the vehicle which in turn will help keep pressure on the tire and help with better launches and 60 fts.

I agree with everything that has been said. Your 60' time should improve, and if not, overall traction when you nail it during street driving will improve. I noticed a difference when I installed them on my car.
