you may think otherwise but you need an adjustable pan-hard bar if you lower the car. the car dog legs to the right normally form the factory (its already a touch out) i would very much like to see the aliment sheet on your car, you should have a thrust angle of 0 which is the most important part, btw dose your front end make pooping noises when you turn the wheel, cause if it doesn't it will the plastic cheeps form the factory cause this, if so get the upgraded strut mounts. Ive had my car on the rack and my drop is a the same as yours and i can say for sure that to get the car right you need adjustable pan-hard bar. Anyway the short of it is to have proper geometry you must do it right. that said i'm gald to see your car seem to be unaffected in a good way after lowering it.

Car was aligned after the springs were installed, shop said that it came right back into alignment after the install- I do not have the sheets tho. No noises from the front end when I turn the wheel. I have probably 300 miles since the install and only good things to say about the springs. Upgraded strut mount replacement is on my list anyway. What does the adjustable panhard bar do?
thanks

After 3k miles of the seat belt rubbing on my neck, I had just given up and started growing thicker skin. Do 2011/2012's have adjustable belts and I'm somehow missing out?

allows adjustment of the rear roll center, helps to fine tune strait line thrust angle.
