Default Hows your alignment after lowering your car?

Thinking about getting the F-sport or Eibach Prokit and using my stock shocks. Hows your alignment after.....alignment? Just worried about negative camber after lowering your car. Our cars already have bad tire wear due to toe.

I say get eibachs because it would be more noticable compared to the 1" drop the f-sports provide.

f-sports are rebadged eibachs. /OT

after the post-installation alignment, you'll find that your 2is will still be within factory specs.

for example, on s-techs my alignment is still within factory specs. search for the 2is alignment thread; i have my post-installation alignment print-out posted there.

That is comforting to know. I'll wait until spring to decide, but my AWD definitely needs to lose an inch or so.

Corrected for truth. Mine never has and never did. My F doesn't have this issue either.
