Default Springs Q?

Ok so i ordered h&r ss springs and i'm hoping if i keep the isolators in there i wont need to get cc plates because it wont be that low or will i need some cc plates to spare my tires anyway?

youll need CC Plates, almost everything over even 1.25 needs them.

Heres what I tell everyone, put them in and let them settle. Bring it to get aligned and see if they can do it without c/c plates. If not, then order them and get it aligned.

Why's that? I don't have a heavy V8 in the front of my car to cause more negative camber.

exactly. I ordered my CC plates and springs ans shocks/struts all at once...

When I went to align my car, it was within specs so I never used the CC plates... I have aligned the car twice since then and it is still in spec...and Im doing it myself so I know for sure it is in spec..

Still got them sitting in a box... MM 4bolt...

I just got the c/c plates because I was going for a solid 2" drop. Was swapping the shocks out at the same time so it was easy to install. I just didn't wanna do everything then find out afterwords I'd have to go back and put them on after I just put everything back together lol.
