you have to wait 2-3 weeks for the springs to settle before getting an alignment. I personally wouldnt ever lower a vehicle more than .5 inch without getting new shocks

Exactly! Unless you plan to lower the front more than the back then it will look like that. I like the way it looks.

Default That is tight, varok!!
Just got mine lowered the other day too. Same rim size set-up but I got 245/35ZR19's in the front. Seems to look ok. I got the Eibach Pro-Kit setup though. Which did you get?

What wheels and tires are you running? Sizes, offsets of both tires and wheels too if you dont mind. Does yur car rub at all even the slightest in the front or back?

Where did you get the springs, i thought they're not available till April. Do they lower your car 1 inch all around ?
