Bought a 2012 3.6R LTD a month or so ago. Looking at the Eibach springs as I only want about an inch drop. So I have to ask the question when you lowered the car did it leave enough adjustability for an alignment to be performed or are people just installing the springs without a check? Nobody talks about alignments after a spring change. Are you chewing up the inside of your tires because there is too much negative camber? I know on my Mustang I had to install caster/camber plates to get the alignment correct. Let's here from the folks who have lowered their cars.

I have RCE springs and didn't have any issue getting an alignment. I don't see why Eibach would be any different as the drop is similar.

I get an alignment after spring installs. I had Swift springs installed and right after they did my alignment. Only one of my rear wheels was very slightly out of spec but it was so slight that it is not noticeable nor cause any tire wear issues (rear camber cannot be adjusted with stock shocks). I hear that the Tein springs are the most severe drop with Eibach's following closely behind and RCE is the least drop and Swift is right in between Eibach and RCE for drop, FYI.

I decided to go retro. I think the fourth generation rims were some of the best oem rims available. I after I installed them with the Nitto 215 5017 tires I stick by my decision.

i see a bunch of people painted their grill frame black, has anyone painted it white to match the paint?

 

I know it's not white, but it gives you a general idea.....
