should i get an allignment?

Okay, Ive just put in some coilovers, i was wondering if i should go get an allignment. Ive heard that you should when u get lowering springs but i dont know about coilovers. Also, how much does an allignmeny cost?
Thanks in advance

wowzers... where'd you pay that ????

wheel and tire zone is the place to go basically any place with a 3d alignment rack will work ... but only if they want to take the time to adjust and adjust till it's right

Anything under $100 is fine for a 4 wheel alignment.

And remember we all only drive civic's so anywhere that does alignments is good enough. Just goto the dealer.

Definitely get an alignment... getting your toe alignment straight will save your tires a lot of km even if you have negative camber

I would, not cuz you lowered your car, but cuz it's an older car and I'm sure it could use an alignment.

Whenever you change your ride height, I suggest getting an alignment.

The price I usually pay for a 4 wheel alignment is $40. But then again, I supply this guy with parts.
