I just got my Tanabe Df210's and am going to install them myself
soon. Will I need an Alignment after installing them? I read some
threads on it but they wearn't very clear on it, give me your input.

Also I have shocks on they're way, will they affect the alignment, let me know,
I'm a little set back so Just trying to save cash if I can.

Thanks

 

you probably won't die from not getting an alignment, but it definitely doesn't hurt. getting a proper alignment after you change wheels or tires or suspension will benefit the longevity of your ride.

 

Changes to alignment are from near zero to small to moderate (usually toe changes). Do you want to not spend a few dollars to be sure the alignment is correct?? It is money well spent IMO...even if it is just for the piece of mind knowing that it is correct and that you aren't unknowingly shreading life from your tires.

 

Get it done. I didn't and paid for it. Bald tires in the front. Can't hurt.

 

 

Cool I'm gona get it aligned then.. thanks guys.

one more thing, in like a week (whenever my shocks arrive)
im gona install my shocks, just in the rear, so will that
need to be re-aligned

thanks

 

I dunno, I wouldn't bother doing an alignment if it were just the rear.

 

The rear is not alignable. Changing rear shocks (unless they incorporate springs or something that modifys ride height) should not change the alignment at all.

 

Thanks for clearing that up man.
