Cool just making sure it worked out haha. Yeah Tommy is right, give it a few days to all settle in and then do the alignment.

I went ahead and got the alignment today based on GSteg's comments. BTW, after I took stuff out of the trunk, the rear went back to 1 finger.

How does the alignment look? Do you have a printout of the sheet? Did you do the alignment with or without the stuff in the trunk?

The trunk was empty. I have the printout, what values do you want to see? Before or actual or both? There were a couple that were out of spec before and those got adjusted. The only one that is still slightly out of spec is Cross SAI on the front...what is that? They said that it doesn't affect tire wear.

Turns out that the rear camber arms weren't needed because they were only -1.5/-1.6 and already within spec.

Your steering axis inclination (SAI) is off because you're lowered, espcially if one side is lowered more than the other. It's not a big deal for street driven cars so don't worry too much about that. If the car tracks straight, and the tire wear is even, then you're okay.

I should probably search but it'd be easier if I could get an answer here. Does Tommy install air suspension?
