Lowered Vehicle Alignment FAQ
1. Do lowered vehicles need a special wheel alignment?
Yes. Lowering changes your suspension geometry, so a regular factory alignment will not correct camber, caster, or toe properly. Specialized alignment is required to avoid tire wear and handling issues.
2. How soon should I align my car after lowering it?
Immediately after installation—then again after 300–500 km once components settle.
3. Can you align vehicles with coilovers or air suspension?
Absolutely. We specialize in coilover, air ride, and camber-adjustable vehicles.
4. Will a custom alignment improve handling?
Yes. A proper performance alignment dramatically improves cornering, stability, braking, and tire life.
5. Do you align all makes and models?
Yes—JDM, European, domestic, EV, modified, and stance setups. If it has wheels, we can align it.

Pre-Alignment Checklist:
Before bringing your car in for alignment, please ensure the following:
- Confirm that the steering and suspension are in safe, proper working condition.
- Check that the front tie rods are not seized, as we do not use heat to free them up.
- Inspect ball joints, bushings, and tie rods for signs of wear or play.
- Ensure bearings are not loose or worn, and there are no leaking struts or shocks.
- Verify the steering box for minor play, and ensure tires are safe for driving.
- The vehicle must be capable of running under its own power.
- If the vehicle underwent restoration, ensure all work has been double-checked by the facility/person responsible. If unsure, book a steering/suspension re-torque before the alignment appointment.
- We will proceed with the alignment once the vehicle passes our inspection
Please note, should any components fail inspection, there will be a charge for the inspection as our technicians invest time in this process. We aim to avoid wasting your time and money by addressing these issues upfront.
Please request a steering and suspension inspection if you do not know the condition of your vehicle.
Thorough inspections and prioritize safety to prevent any future issues.
