Tein H.Tech Lowering springs need alignment kit?

[ej8_st]

I know Eibach and H&R recommends alignment kits when the drop is enough but I know H&R OE springs don't need alignment kit with the .75 drop but this Tein has a 1.3 drop so can it go without an alignment drop?

I'm pretty sure you are thinking of a camber kit......


At a 1.3" drop, a camber kit is not necessary......after you drop the car, let the suspension settle, then take it to a shop to be aligned. Have the toe set to 0, and the camber as close to stock as possible. Toe kills your tires much, much faster than camber. My brother's car has been dropped 2in for 2 years with no camber kit, and camber wear was not an issue on the tires.

Yes you will still need an alignment done. When you change the ride height, your camber and toe will change. Camber is not adjustable with the stock arms but with such a mild drop, all you will need is to have the toe set within factory specs.
