Tein

I recently installed tein s-tech and I was told to let the car adjust for a week and then take it to alignment.

it is generally a good idea to let the suspension settle for about a week or 2 to let everything find it's happy place before getting an alignment.

also, if the alignment shop is any honest shop, they will tell you the same thing and should recommend not doing the alignment until the car has settled.

not to steal this thread or anything, but if I decide to change my drop on coilovers, will I need to take it again for alingment? I just put my suspension in 3 days ago.

If you are dropping it more- you may even get to the point of needing cambr kits

Its cheap to have the alignment checked after reset suspension- if its still ok- then drive and enjoy
