    Do I need an aligment?

    I'm about to install my Tein drop springs but I remebered I've had to do an aligment last time a dropped one of my vehicles, do I need an aligment on my Corolla after my drop?

    DEFINATELY... your wheels will be all out of whack and your tires will get ruined, not to mention the bad traction.

    do the alignment, sometimes you get lucky, I didn't, after my TRD drop, my "V" rated Eagles only lasted about 20K before I noticed they were wearing horribly on the outer edges.... :( :( :(

    Removing strut assembly, and reinstalling with shorter coils will affect toe-out and camber. You can't get away from an alignment adjustment to achieve ultimate performance, handling and safety, while reducing tire temperature, stress and wear.
