I lowered mine with eibach springs and front m5 spring cushions. after driving a week it drove a perfect straight line so i thought i didnt need an alignment. a little over a month later i noticed some serious inner tire wear on drivers side front tire, so i took it in and here are the surprising results:

Front left toe:

stock range:0.11 - 0.19 degrees
before:-0.31
after:0.15

Front Right Toe:

stock range:0.11 - 0.19 degrees
before:-0.94 WOW
after:0.13


toe was extremely bad, camber/caster was near perfect.

after driving on it aligned, all i can say is oh my god...

it bites the pavement like ive never experienced, i cant wait to take it on the twisties now:D

anytime you R&R the front end parts, you do an alignment.
