Do I Really Need To Adjust Headlights After Ct Springs???

I might be going in a little while to drop off my car to get the CT springs put on. Do I really need to adjust the headlights or do the CT springs effect the hight too little to make a difference?

Need quick replys

Thanks

its up to you, if the cut off of your light output isnt far enough for you, aim them higher.

takes all of 4 seconds to adjust your headlights.

I think I made the mistake of adjusting it too high...my HIDs were lighting up big rigs and signs from the bridge like a mile away...might be just slightly too high. When I first droped the car, I compared with my friend's sister's TL and they seem pretty even, but when I was driving, it looked like I needed a slight adjustment.

I don’t know how you guys are lowering your cars without adjusting the headlights.

The first time I drove mine in the dark after the install I knew I would have to adjust them UP a bit.
When I was driving, only the surface of the road immediately in front of the car was lit up like I was running with fog lights only.

The beam is really short distance if you don't adjust them. I never adjusted them but every time I drove it at night I wished I had.
