those springs F'ed the toe on your alignment. Usually 1-3 weeks after spring and/or coil install (depending on how often you drive the car) you need to get an alignment. Make sure you pick up after market camber and toe hardware. Sadly its not as easy as $300 springs....$200-400 in other hardware and $100 alignment..YAY!

I have rear camber arms, and I did the alignment and camber arms about a month after I installed the springs. Once I get another set of tires on the back I'll have the alignment checked again. Unfortunately the only place I could find around me that had an in ground alignment bay was NTB..

3 months and these tires are shot..
New V12's riding shotgun and a toe bolt kit from O'Reilly to help get a little more life out a this set... Hopefully...

Just read the whole thread. We need more people to mod their roadsters!

Other than under drive pullies, I've done just about all the bolt one short of FI you can do.. Currently saving for FI now.

Installed my toe bolts this morning. Funny how all the write-ups say you're cutting aluminum, mine were steel, which took forever...
All measures in spec, hopefully these tires will exceed 3 months.
