Eibach Lowering Springs Pro Kit*Pics*

I havent seen to many peeps with the prokit so I figured I would post some pics of my TC. Eibach claims a 1.5 inch drop which I would say is about right. Any Q's feel free to ask.

I'm considering getting the Eibachs too. How's the ride if you dont' mind me asking? Also, did you need an alignement?

You should always do an alignment when you lower a car.

That looks pretty low for a Pro Kit... looks good, though.

About alignments... should you get them right after you lower it, a week or so after you lower it, or both?

I believe you should wait at least 2 weeks allowing your springs to settle.

what if the tC is your daily driver (highways and roads) and you just lowered it, wouldnt your tires get messed up driving it around for 2 weeks without an alignment?

no, it wouldnt mess your car up or your tires. i put on my H-techs...and let them settle for about 2.5 weeks and then got the allignemnt, my tires look the same as they did before.

My car pulls to the right too. Actually, my Camry pulls to the right too.

Someone once told me that the factory does that on all new cars intentionally as a safety feature. If you fall asleep on the road, it will pull to the right over the bumps, to wake you up.

I'm not sure if that's really true.

There is a steering Pull/Drift to the right TSB for early model tc's. EIther faulty powersteering pump/vane assembly or steering rack or both!

Its BEST to get an alignment Rite after you get the springs on, and then a few weeks down the road too. But i would try to get aligned as soon as possilby after replacing with AM springs.
