Question h&r sport springs

hey guys i have a 99 tl and was thinking of buying the h&r SPORT SPRINGS from this site ays that its an even drop of 1.75/1.75 front and rear...so does this mean that i can install them and NOT have to get an allignment? since im dropping it the same height on both sides?
thnx in advance for your replies

NO. More than likely you will need to be realigned. It doesn't matter about the drop being even front and back, what matters is that you are playing with the suspension. And even though the "Toe" may stay in adjustment, you're camber may/will be affected. Unfortunately, there is no rear camber adjustment an alignment shop can do for you, you'll probably need a camber kit to correct.

You know, even if you drove a completely stock car, You WILL still need a alignment in the future. You can't avoid alignments. And it isn't that expensive. I'm getting mine done today. $40.

I have the H&R Sport drop. My toe is off in the rear and front. We'll see how good we can get it back to specs.

Well doing a alignment is not really a big hassle, beside you should have you alignment check aleast once a year.

I have H&R sports and alignment is a must. Wait for a week or so for the springs to settle before you do it
