Default alignment/tire wear?? Lowering kit!

My buddy is buying the eibach pro kit. But before he purchases he has a few questions.
- Will he need the car re-aligned
- Will the tires wear unevenly

Also is there anyhting he should be concerned about when lowering???

Just be careful, backing out up driveways, and going over railroad tracks. If you don't just speed over them you'll be fine.

Yes, an alignment will be required.

Just a point of reference, a lot of shops will tell him that he needs caster/camber plates to allow for full adjustability. This isn't necessarily true though. He can use cam bolts, if it's a street car to allow for enough camber adjustment.

CC plates are a good thing to have though, but aren't necessarily required.

Be sure to upgrade shocks/struts as well, as the stock ones won't last long.
