For all the coilovers set up'ers out there, do you guys get your car aligned everytime you adjust your height? I know that when you adjust your height the toe will change. How do you guys cope with this? I know most of the people don't get their toe aligned after adjusting their car.

 

If you don't fix your toe, your tires will get chewed up.

The trick is to get it at the height you want it, and then leave it alone. I know it sucks but thats how it is. Then next time you do suspension work (that will require an alignment), you can change it again...

 

I had omni full coilovers put on and the alignment was perfect. I lowered the front down another inch after the install and the alignment is still perfect.

And this is after you had it up on a rack and checked by the alignment tech?

Or are you just eyeballing it?

it may drive straight but depending on how low u went the suspension changes affected youre toe by atleast 50 degrees and youre camber by approx. 1.5 degrees.

50 degrees of toe? Wow. He must be driving sideways.
