Note that if you lowered the car a lot you may well need a wheel alignment to prevent significant tyre wear and ensure handling is not negatively effected.

I dropped my NA 30mm in the rear and slightly different (much smaller) amounts in the front to level the front up (L/R) and needed a wheel alignment big time.

Hmmm... should probably go get that done considering I dropped the car from stock to lower than stock Tein SS... :?

You will most definitely need a wheel alignment if you stuff around with the suspension in any way - particularly lowering.

ic well i have not drĂ­ven the car yet so it might be to fulcrum for a wheel alignment. that said it is technically illegal so it may not be worth me leaving at that level. I think it dropped about 15mm.
