Tire Alignment on lowered cars?
Anyone know of a place that can align tires when your car has been lowered. Merchants couldnt do it, they wanted me to put my stock springs back on and bring it back. 
Thanks
Thanks

Alignment
Firestone aligned one of my lowered Talons.
How much lower are you talking here?
Also, to get a correct alignement on a lowered vehicle, you really need a camber kit, at least one for your drive wheels, but all four wouldn't hurt.

yeah if you are going through the process of getting the alignment cause you are lowered and all the Camber kit is a must have to save your tires. if not you will just be wasting the $ on alignment cause you tires wil wear out in about 3 months or so depending on te amount of driving you are doing..
