What Do You Think?

I did 1.2 inch lowering springs from BMR and I love it. I just don't know how long to wait to get an alignment done. What do you suggest? Top picture is before bottom is after obviously.

Looks great. No real reason to wait. Take it on in.

Immediately. If you timed the bushings yourself, then it is definitely out of spec. If you didn't, it needs to be done at the alignment shop immediately.

Ok thanks. They told me it would need to settle in. Or it would ruin the alignment. That's why I hadn't taken it in.

They say that usually when they don't even know what timing the bushings means. They are hoping they will move themselves into place. They won't, in general.

You can drive it a little bit without hurting anything, but it is probably causing uneven wear on your tires at the moment. I'd say within a 100 miles or so, you should get it to an alignment shop. And yes, make sure they "time" the dynamic bushings in the system. BTW.....the new stance looks AWESOME!!!
