Scott- They prob saw the lip and for some reason thought it was me haha. A few of my friends went down, they piled in my friends 2010 red Camaro SS, and a white Avenger. Apparently my friend in the Camaro was driving like a ******* and Bryan had the look of "WTF" on his face when the kid took off. hahahah

Struts will eventually go, hopefully not too soon though. I have gotten an alignment every time. You will def want it. My recent alignment was quite off on the front right. Heres my alignment sheet from when I only swapped struts with a friend to get back to stock ride height.

I'm down but to be honest it will be hard. I Just started school and I have soccer every night so I doubt I will have time to help but I can see. Alignments can be done at various tire shops, Goodyear and Belle tire are the ones I chose. You only need a front alignment so it will be $49.99 ish at Belle tire.

alright, i dont know when im going to be able to do it either, i have to get ahold of crazer and see where were doing it, or wherever were able to, and possibly i can get a free alignment from the place i got the tires from here locally. i work thursday late after school even, and work the whole weekend right in the middle of the day about, so itd have to be late one of those days unless were doing it at crazers work (belle tire) itd prob have to be on business hours, so idk when yet, he has to get on here and tell me when ahah, im free all day today and tomorrow, but i wont have the money till thurs, so idk what to do.

sorry, im only on this site after 6 after work, lol, i get back and i have to read through a page and a half! lol anywho belle tire does most mechanical work as well as tires, i am an ASE master certified tech! Discount tire only does tires, they cant even replace a broken wheel stud if they break it because they are not certified in brakes, they are not certified in anything! when i worked at Midas, Discount would always send us there broken stud jobs,lol. but yes i can do it at belle tire, only problem is belle tire is going to charge you to do it because we are using their equipment, unfortunatly i don't have great perks there! i believe they would charge you about 2hrs labor which comes to $120 in labor! i know the stock SC struts are junk anyways, they are the same struts that are on most newer GM cars and they usually start leaking by 30K miles. I read somewere that TC struts are capable of being lowered and so far i havn't seen any leaking! I will send you a pm with my # in it so we can get together!

I went a day without an alignment. Got mine done at firestone. I definitely think if your going to put springs on the car just wait and buy the TC shock/struts and just do it all at the same time, otherwise it seems like alot of silly work and extra money even if you have help but thats just me. I also replaced my strut towers while i was at it. Wanted to do it right the first time so i don't have to worry about it.
