I am going to lower my car this week with eibachs. I am just wondering what i need to do on my car after the springs are installed. Does it need a alignment? Anyhting else? Thank in advance for all your help.
if you have a shop do it they will make sure the car is aligned and the camber is correct before you leave with it, that is if they know what they are doing
and a third opinion...
i think you should drive the car for about a week to let the springs and suspension settle then get it aligned.
spugen just installed mine last week and i have an appointment with darin (west end) for a full alignment in about a week.
Eibach smacks each springs with something like 40 tons of pressure on a gigantic press to solve the settling problem. Mine haven't moved at all, the height measurement is exactly what it was the first day I put them on. If you have a chance to take the Eibach factory tour you will see that step.
That being said, have a good alignment shop give you a 4 wheel alignment. You can search the forum for recommendations on what specs to choose, I went for right in the middle of Honda's minimum and maximum specs. Perfect tire wear so far, even on the racetrack.
