Default Post-coilover install

i intend to get coilovers sometime within the month. was wondering what i'd need to do after installing. i've heard of something called corner balancing--what exactly is this, and is it necessary after insalling coilovers? also i know i need to get an alignment and i heard getting the UK spec alignment for my AP1 makes a world of a difference.


any feedback is appreciated

search mofo...corner balancing is when they optimize the ride height/balance for your bodyweight etc so the car has an even distribution of weight/balance at each corner...that is the short answer...

I can see your Howard education has limited your search to such a small place like s2ki...read my link dingleberry...and no its not necessary but i would recommend it

I'm sorry for the name calling

Corner balance is not necessary (I didn't do it) but everyone that did seemed to love it.

UK specs are good. Car felt alot more planted. I got my UK specs with a slight modification primarily for street use. PM me if you want it.
