Suggestions on alignment w/Tein and Tokico???
Friday, June 23, 2006 6:03 AM
I have a 2004 chevrolet cavalier with the following suspension changes...

Tein S-Tech springs and Tokico D-Spec shocks/struts.

Anything I should know before hand to tell the alignment guy?

No I don't think you need to tell them anything.. They may ask you if your lowered but thats probably it.. I know when I got an alignment I was't asked anything, they just did their thing.

Oh really, well our cars really don't have Camber at all.. They sell camber kits for our cars but their not really needed.. Those are mostly for Imports.. When our J's get lowered the front our wheels don't look like this / \

Its not even an issue. if they say anything about it being lowered causeing a problem for them leave right away and go somewhere that knows what they are doing. Our cars are easy to align and this shouldn't be an issue at all.





Semper Fi SAINT. May you rest in peace.

If you were thinking of changing the springs at all, wait until you decide... typically you wait a month to get an alignment. Some say settling is a myth and say you can get an alignment right away... I personally would prefer wearing my tires unevenly for maybe a month rather than for years if the suspension does settle more after alignment.
