I've found Firestone to be pretty good about working with lowered cars. Plus, they have a Lifetime Alignment deal where you pay $150 or so and you can get alignments from any Firestone for the life of the vehicle. It's a really good deal.
    Hmm ok I will have to check that out!!
    Thanks!

        YES YES YES

        first with the adjustable arms...you will most likely hit your inner fender well...no bueno.

        With adjustable ball joints, DO NOT get the ones with snap rings holding them in...while g-man had front upper ball joint replacements from acdelco they were held in by snap rings...which failed...

        THESE however should not...I need THOSE!!!

          this is what happened to my car, with a ebay camber kit...

          going down the road. it snapped.
          this picture is after i pulled in the shop and jacked it up... and this is what my wheel looked like before i started wrenching on anything... it could have been alot worse.

            I have the ingalls 3degree kit for the front. mine does hit sometimes when I hit big bumps. Other than that there a great purchase. My tires are lasting me a lot longer and having a full tire contact is also great.

                    You have to realize that they dont know what your car is. I delt with the same shit until i just took my car in.

                    I was told by phone my car couldn't be aligned, so i took my car in anyways... they got it on the rack came back to me and said, "hey there is aftermarket stuff so im gonna charge you more and take my time"... i figured mostly bushshit to get more money but SURE!

                    So an hour later my car was done for $80... i then ask why one the phone my car couldn't be aligned... he said dumb kids with cars lowered +3'' come in with tires rubbing everything and want him to fix it so he just started telling them he couldn't do it.

                    Put it in perspective, majority of his traffic is not mild/slightly lowered stock looking accords... but rather riced out ebay droped/cut cars that are truly a nightmare, pain in the ass and a huge liability wrapped into one ugly ass half primered tin can
                    Engines hate me... thats why they commit suicide
