Alignment after lowering

Alignment after lowering
Before

As you can see, the tech was able to adjust the settings (front: camber, caster, and toe / rear: camber and toe) back to tolerance, with the exception of the left camber in the front. He doesn't know the reason why it's like that, but right now, the camber is at 1.4 degrees; tolerance is between 0.2 - 1.3, so he said that 1.4 isn't going to affect it much. The right front is sitting at 1.0 degree.
I guess this shows that in order for your tires to get it's maximum life and performance, getting alignment done is important after doing suspension work.

I'm running -3 degrees camber in the rear and -2.5 in the front. Front camber is 0 and rear is -.1 total.
It isn't good for the tires, but it sure handles nice. If I get the turbo I'll probably have to dial that down a little.
How much did the springs drop your car?

I got it done at Planet Nissan. It was for $99.95, but worth the certified equipments and available factory specs.
