OK guys, I just got my Yokohama tires replaced as the previous set sent to me were defective. And I am loving it. Finally a smooth drive with no shaking!

Now my question is this.

My car tends to slightly pull to the right. This gradually got worse after the Eibach spring install.

I am waiting for my Ichiba 10mm spacers to arrive.

Should I do a wheel alignment before the spacers are put on, or after?

Thanks

Do it now. Spacers will make no difference to the alignment.

I would wait and align the car as you will be driving it.

if it's coming within the next 2 weeks, just wait. if not, maybe alignment now. don't think spacers will affect anything

Thanks guys, the spacers should be here, but due to Eid holidays.. I can only pick them up from the post office on wednesday.

OK guys, here's an update!

The wheel alignment specialists insisted I install the spacers first, then come for the alignment work! Reason being is they noticed I need camber adjustment as well.

Seems like there is more negative camber in my rear left than my rear right!

They also quoted $250 to do the complete work, and to drop off the car at 8am, and pick her up at 5pm!

Does that sound about right to you guys?

That's quite pricey. For 4 wheel alignment with camber adjustment, we have a very good ship in Miami which charges $125.

But I didn't know the GS had adjustable camber.

I know my GS430 has only Toe adjustment.

I had a local inground alignment shop charge me just $50 because after he quoted me $100. He felt bad he couldn't do caster or camber.

So how do we correct an obvious negative camber on a 3GS?

Any updates on this?

from factory there is ZERO adjustment on camber, it's just not adjustable. you can get camber kit for 2is and put on the 3gs.

but keep in mind, camber is not the key, as long as the shop knows how to adjust the toe to counter it. my car is low (lower than yours) but on the front, my tires went for more than 30k miles because of the right toe setting
