    Im looking into buying the Tein Htech springs. Are there any alignment issues after installing these?
    Are all the readings still within spec? Is the camber still in spec or would I have to use a camber kit or shims?

    I went with tanabe NF210, with .8 drop in the front and 1.1 drop in the back. Initially camber was off but I was able to get aligned within spec, except for the right rear which was out by .08degrees per the technician. I don't know what the specs are for the tein springs, but hoping the information from my experience helps.

    ^ What was your camber at before the alignment?

    I never asked, but within spec as far I understand. If it helps, before the car was lowered I still had the original wheels and tires and hadn't had an alignment other than at the dealership.
