Eibach Sportlines installed
Well, Since the sportlines drop the car so low, you need a steeda camber adjustment kit to allow for more adjustment. The installer that did my car and one other called Steeda for recommendations. Steeda actually didn't put their stamp of approval on the sportlines cuz they drop so low. They did say to redrill the strut mounts about 3/4 inch toward the middle of the car in addition to the camber kit to allow for an accurate allignment. Everything worked out pretty good. I'll go take some pics and post for yall.
I told you wrong. They are drilled toward the outside not the inside. This is a picture of the passenger side strut tower.

I never heard of drilling new holes of to accomidate the sportlines?? Did you guys try to align before the drilling? Ricva did you have to drill? I just never heard of this. Did you call eibach to see what they reccomend.
My installer said the first time he attempted to install them on another stang, he didn't have enough range on the allignment. Steeda recommended this course along with the camber kit. It may work another way but i'll tell you, the ride quality is remarkable for a drop this low on stock shocks and struts. I do plan on upgrading those components in the near future.

The alignment shop had to open the holes up a little bit in the top of the tower but nothing like that picture. You can't tell any difference at looking at the top of the tower from when it was stocked. I have a friend who also has the sports on his 05 he went to the same shop as me and they were able to align his just fine also. Richjr74 did you have yours aligned at a custom alignment shop?
Yeah but it wasn't the same place that did the install. They specialized in alignments. So far it seems great. Probably could have gotten away with a smaller adjustment on the towers.
