Need help from anyone on air / 98-00
I am wondering what suspension parts it takes after air install to get alignment lined back up properly to avoid excessive uneven tire wear.
99 LS
TruHart Air Struts
Vera Elite Management
19x9.5 MRR GF9's
I would rather not run negative camber, if possible.
I ordered but haven't received the wheels yet.
I'm trying to get a list together and order whatever parts I'll need so I can get it up and running asap.
Any help and advice would be much appreciated!

The alignment will take place at whatever your designated ride height will be. If you're going to be fairly low, you'll need adjustable front upper control arms, rear adjustable camber arms, and rear toe rods. Serial999 should be your go to.
If you're going to be rolling around closer to factory height, there should be enough adjustment in the factory arms to keep things straight.

^i will also emphasize whiteUCF's comment on making sure you can get the air ride to stop and be consistent at a designated ride height.
I see that Vera Elite is a pressure based system which can vary a bit due to external factors like ambient temp, car loading, etc however it is entirely better than not having any height leveling at all.
with that said, you just need to align the car to the most common ride height you will be using (such as driving) to minimize tire wear.
if you are close or about 1-2" below stock, you can use still the factory adjustments to get the alignment to back to factory specs.
anything lower will need at a minimum the rear adjustable toe links.

Thank you, gentlemen. I appreciate the info.
I was looking at the serial nine stuff and it confused me because it said it is used to achieve more negative camber when I am looking to adjust to get less.
The roads here in Seattle are absolute garbage right now so I definitely don't plan on driving too low.
Hopefully for now I can make do with stock equipment until down the road sometime I can purchase more specialized equipment.
Thanks again 👌
