Default Suspension Question?

I am going to get an alignment soon.

I was just woundering what this would be called? I just put on different springs (nuespeed), new struts, and a camber kit. I got it all for free off my friends car. His drove just fine. My car at 40+ mph pulls hard to the left then hard to the right. It almost feels like the front is floating. Is that the "toe" or what? I have to drive so slow everywhere, i look like a real "stunna".

Thanks for the help. Matt

Since you lowered the car, most likely the toe is off. That "floating" feeling is exactly what I experience when I lowered my car and sure enough, the toe was off. You wanna get an alignment as soon as possible. The toe-out will eat up the inside of your tire in no time.

the front tie-rods, and the rear trailing arms on the rear can be adjusted as well.
