Alignment is fine, I just need hub centric rings I think. I have a fairly pronounced shake at 70mph, but at other speeds it goes away. Problem is 70mph = 90% of my driving and is probably fux0ring the tires.

Oh well, new rims/tires soon anyway :fawk:

To 3"? :eek4: The Prokits I have now say 1.2" drop, but I'm thinking it's under an inch drop. Prokits never drop enough.

My buddy has these springs on his Vigor (yeah, there's two of them :eek4: ) on 18's and the bottom of the fender sits right ontop of the tire. IMO perfect

I am dropped 1.2" right now and the inside of my tires are choppy, so more than another inch and I'll have big issues. h:

I don't know a car made in the past 25years without adjustable toe.

all you need to do is install your suspension then get an alignment (just tell them not to touch the camber or even it out) and zero out the toe.

I'll bet your tire problem is due to toe not camber. sounds like you might have toe in more on one side than the other.

take off the mudguards, and that'll give you the extra 0.5" to drop more :exnbp:
