I've driven my car with H&R's, stock shocks/struts, no CC plates AND no ISOS on saleens for exactly 2 years next month. This includes driving the eva-lovin f*ck out of my car, 0-150, burnouts, doughnuts, flying at 85-100 on the highway, pretty much overall driving it like I stole it.

My alignment is perfect w/out the CC plates.


Do it.

My car has 50,000 miles with stock shocks and struts, and i ran a Eibach Pro Kit for probably 20,000 of that, and recently switched to H&R Super Sports. I've had no problems whatsoever.
