Default Lowering 05 wrx

Need to change the rear shocks on my wrx bug as they are sticking and driving me up the wall (tried the regrease trick but only lasted a few months). I plan to get hold of some prodrive/eibach lowering springs to do at the same time and was wondering if i would need to get the alignment checked afterwards or is it ok to leave as is?

Hi Pod

Yes fit either the Prodrive / Eibach springs and...

You MUST get a four wheel computer alignment done. The difference is like night and day.

Many specialists offer this service and it is a must have first mod.

Where you located ?

Just outside Hull..(East side...come on you Robins!). Do you know of anyone local to me who can do the alignment. Handy with the tools so i'll be doing the mods by myself.

The Eibach springs are great, I have them on my 05 WRX .
22 or 24mm rear anti roll bar, solid droplinks and fast road geometry setup will transform your car.
