i installed a set of suspension techniques springs on my civic. the drop rate according to the site is 1.3 inches, but it looks a little lower than that.

the problem is, when i went to get an alignment, the shop said that the camber was too messed up to do the alignment and that they could not fix the toe. I was just under the impression that a drop less than 1.5 did not necessarily require a camber kit.

any thoughts or suggestions?

 

They just told you that because they didnt want to mess with your car. Either that or they didnt want to try to get your car on the rack. But toe is def adjustable. Take it to another place.

btw. you shouldnt need a camber kit, unless you notice excessive tire wear.

 

thanks, thats what i figured, ill try another place tomorrow

yea thats true some places dont want to deal with lowered cars. i had a hard time finding a place that would adjust my skunk2 camber kit.

 

around in the raleigh area, i have a friend who works at a merchants do mine, but before that i called up many of the tirekingdom companies (merchants, NTB, and of course tire kingdom) and they were willing to do it no questions asked. on their site http://tirekingdom.com/index.do they offer coupons and right now, alignments are $20 off with coupon
