lowering questions

ryan_koko · 03-17-2013, 10:31 AM

I recently lowered my car with the h&r sport springs and never got an alighnment after. My rear tire tread is gone and the inside part of my right rear wheel is really degraded. I definitely need new tires but I am being told by someone that I need a camber kit. Is this true or will new tires and a proper alignment solve this?

Just need to straighten out the toe. Pay the money for a good alignment once you get those new tires.

You lowered it without an alignment? The toe changes drastically when you alter the ride height. Get an alignment ASAP!!!!

An alignment is something you should always do anytime you lower a car.

Any suspension work requires an alignment. Get it done dude! Safety first
