Just need some suggestions on which to do first. I just got Koni yellows modified onto some seperate spare front shocks I got from a buddy. (01+ Civic require to cut the stock shocks in order to fit in an "insert" shock). I'm planning to install those on Weds. along with a torn tie rod boot, and front sway bar bushings at the same time. Then also firming up the back a bit on the rear konis. Anyways I went into the alignment shop I usually go to and told them I bought new wheels for just daily driving and needed an alignment for the parts I will be installing Weds.. They recommended putting the wheels on first before getting the alignment I didn't think much of it until now. Just wondering should I get the alignment before the wheels+tires mounted and balanced? Or the other way around

 

um.... i would put the sway abrs and such on too with the shocks. they want you to come back and pay more money. just my opinion.

 

Do all of the work then get the alignment.

 

are the wheels the EXACT same overall size as they were with your previous alignment setup? if not, then yeah, do all the work first and THEN get the alignment. have the springs settled yet?

 

The wheels are off by like .1-.2 inches Guess I'll put the wheels on first then get the alignment

 

Do as much as you can, including putting on those K1s and then getting an alignment.

 

Yeah gonna try to firm the rears to. For the rear they have a metal panel that's in the way of being able to firm up the back by using the tool So yeah doing it all at once then going to do alignment friday :wiggle:
