do you have precise laser vision? ...go get an alignment unless you don't care about your tires. You change your suspension geometry with a drop.

post pics.

and oh yes, how does the ride feel compared to stock?

ps.

Megan's site says the drop is 1" all around. But I researched other sites and they said that the drop was more like 1.75" and 2.0" maybe thats one of the problems on you being so low on these springs.

It sounds like a good drop to me, but I can't compare them to the well known names since noone is running these. Please give me some desciptive details on the ride, since I'm still in the progress of choosing a set of springs for my DD S2000.

Happens way more than people/shops like to admit. (swapping rears for fronts during install). They get in a rush and dont pay attention.
