eibach pro rear lowering bolt kit
Hey guys if i was to use the eibach pro lowering bolt kit for the rear of my 02 z or any other rear lowering bolt kit used to lower it farther than the stock bolts will allow, do i need to get an alignment for the rear? Or does it not apply? The car is already lowered all the way on stock bolts so i would like the rear to lose the gap that it still has I would be lowering it probably another 1-1.5" depending on the kit. Does anyone know of a good kit with a nice drop other than the pics ive seen of the eibach kit? Thanks

And yes, you will need an alignment. By the way, the car will ride/handle horrible going lower than stock bolts due to shock travel being eliminated.

Is there a way of getting aftermarket shocks that are designed for the lowered suspension aside from going with an expension coilover set up? Like a set of bilstein heavy duty sport shocks? I have experience this issue in my mustang as i have used sportlines with stock shocks and the ride is horrible since the shocks have no travel, def do not want to make the same mistake twice.
