Just installed "The Eibach Pro-Kit lowering spring" this weekend, thanks to BIllman off of Long Island - Great job on the install! :thumbup:

Now Im looking for a shop or someone to have my wheels aligned and adjust my camber and toe. Many shop here close to where I'm at won't do it or the car just simply won't fit to get on the lift ->>Its to low! Its only lowered 1 inch front and back. Theres got to be a way.

If you guys know of any shops or anyone that can help me out please let me know.

Thank you all in advance for your help.

I go to Advanced Tire in Aberdeen, NJ. Have been going there for a few years now for autocross alignments, and they do a great job. Jason, the owner, always goes over the alignment with you after it's done to make sure everything is perfect.

Okay, thanks I will give them a call tomorrow. So they accomodate our lowered car? Meaning they will not look at it and say "sorry, its too low to put up on the lift" :tipwink:
How much is yours lowered?

My car is stock height, but my previous car was a lowered VW, which they had no issue with. And my friend has a very low E36 M3 that he's brought there multiple times without issues. It wouldn't hurt to mention it on the phone, but it has yet to be an issue.

It's near Keyport, but it's in Aberdeen. They charge $90.

I do. But I was in the middle of a valve job (pulling the cyl head off and changing valves) for another customer and had no time to spare.

My local NTB has been good to me. Cheap, sometimes a coupon online plus they let me sit in the car while it's being aligned. It might not seem like a big deal but the car doesn't drive itself and the drivers weight can make a difference.

wait 2 weeks for the springs to settle before you have it aligned....if they're new springs.

I was having the same problem until I found American Tire & Auto Care on Route 516, Old Bridge, NJ. Drive right in with no ramp. The lift is flush to the ground.

My friend works at STS tire in Oakdale, NY. If you want to come out here I can possibly get it done at a good price. I got on and I have coil overs lowered pretty flush with the fenders so with springs you should make it quite easily

I thought Steve didnt do corner balancing because he didnt have scales. Does he have it now?
