Default Picture Request.....

Hi, I'm getting ready to order (potentially) some Eibach Sportline Springs for my 93 Del Sol. I'm gonna be running stock shocks (for lord knows how long) and I was just wondering if I'm gonna need a camber kit and if the drop was even on a Del Sol. I've heard some people say the springs make their drop look uneven. Anyone have pictures? Thanks in advance! Also, I'm running 205/50/15 tires. Will I be running the risk of rubbing?

Why spend the money on camber kits and not shocks? You can get Koni Reds for pretty cheap. You wn't need a camber kit, but you must get an alignment right away, and have the toe set to 0; not 'in spec'.

Your car doesn't have even weight distribution, so the drop may be different on each side. You won't notice it after a while.

Well I'm planning on not needing a camber kit. I was counting on the alignment though. Thanks for the info. As long as its not doing "the gangsta lean" I can deal with the drop being a smidge different between front and rear. Thanks again.
