Lowering springs will cause an unstable alignment in your wheels even if you align them every week.
You will need the custom struts to fix that problem. Most people do not understand that so They end up like me who gets there tires chewed out at every hard cornering. The coilovers is what you really need to fix alingment problems and def the top pillow mount. Lowering springs have less than then OEM springs in terms of strength, cause they expand and contract a lot faster than stock. Even though they are the same length. |

Quality lowering springs do not cause an unstable alignment. You just need to get your car properly aligned. I suspect that you've got something else wrong with your car. And just out of curiosity, why do you think custom struts fix the problem anyway? In what way(s) would the struts have to be customized? -------------------- New Toyota project coming soon...
