I just gonna throw this out there as an example of what not to do so you don't make the same mistake I made.
If you make any adjustments to your suspension. GET IT ALIGNED! That second!
I had been preaching it for years but never followed my own advice. So it cost me about $1000 in tires in the span for 2 months.
Get your tires aligned!

Yup - this is sooo true... I put in Energy Suspension bushings in my rear control arms (upper & lower) and did not get an alignment because I *thought* I had ligned up the ecentric bolts in the correct locations, and 1 month later my tires were wearing on the inside edge...
My rule:
Get it aligned ASAP if you do ANY type of suspension modification/removal

I just slamed my car and 3 weeks later the insides of the tires are gone, since i have 18's the rear tires are rubbing on the upper control arm....

You'd laugh at me if you saw how I align my car....
