Struts or wheel alignment
Caster-camber plates are going to be the bare minimum of what you need with your car lowered if you are going to retain the stock suspension geometry. A bumpsteer kit (adjustable tie-rod ends), and taller ball-joints like the Steeda X2s should do that if I'm not mistaken. The taller ball-joint will push the end of the a-arms down one inch relative to the spindles, so they are parallel with the ground again. I have a bumpsteer kit, cc plates, and offset rack bushings installed, and even with the car pefectly aligned, the suspension geometry is still off. I bought the Steeda X2s, billet offset rack bushings, and HD sway-bar end-links, but haven't had a chance to install them yet. I'm fairly sure that when I do, and get the car aligned, it should be back to correct suspension geometry for the first time since I lowered the car.
Looking back, if I had known more about suspension before I started modding mine and lowering the car, I would probably just have gone with drop spindles. He's right, it really is the easiest way. There's nothing wrong with going the other route, it basically just comes down to preference.
I ask this because being that I am a college student and only 20 years old I don't have much of a budget for my car at the moment but I don't wanna buy new tires that are gonna wear this way. Thanks for the input guys
