I realize that everyone seems to believe that an alignment will cure all. It does not work that way. By getting an alignment your car does not magically go straight. Please look back to my last post. A camber kit is necessary with tein s-techs to properly align the front of the vehicle. It is not necessary for the rear. You do not have enough factory adjustment with the struts or lower balljoint to bring your tires level. So for all the self proclaimed mechanics out there just so you know, I do alignments, I am a professional toyota and honda trained technician and I am telling you an alignment without a camber kit is not a magical cure all.

WELL... I finally figured out what the hell that dam noise was. Its was my tire rubbing the plastic wheel well. It wasnt a major problem it was just annoying. I also realized that my 18 inch tire was alot thicker and meatier than the usual on a dropped car. I painted my stock rims black and installed them. It doesnt runb at all. They look amazing with the drop. The quality of the ride is awesome. it feels better than stock. Thank you all for your comments and suggestions. All of you really helped me out!!!!

How about Sprint springs? They have a 1.75 drop front and back, will I need a camber setup with them also?
