    Galanttuner is talking about incorrect camber and toe. It doesnt matter if the car doesnt pull, after lowering the car you should ALWAYS get an alignment because the camber and toe adjustments are changed and will cause uneven tire wear.

    I'd rather have the knowledge and ability to do it than the money to buy it already done.

    you just lowered the car, how do you know how the tire is wearing evenly?

    GET AN ALIGNMENT.

    God created turbo lag to give the v8's a brief moment of hope.

    Not taking sides Warren, but I'd listen to these guys. You got your drop at Christmas, so you won't notice the uneven wear as much.
    To get your car aligned won't cost much and it will help you in the long run.

    When you lower your car, it changes the geometry of the suspension. I thoguht my tires "looked" straight. I brought it to get an alignment and all my tires were different at angles. As much as 5 degrees off
