man im getting frustrated...
Shuman wont do the install because they are too worried about the wheel alignment afterwards... they said it could be completely thrown off and wouldnt know if it would align correctly and that would mess up the ESP...
Belletire would do the install for $499 w/ springs... but no wheel alignment... and to me ... thats F'ing way to much!!! ... i'd go with 500 for everything done...
Any other places you could think of Land you've been a huge help!
and to everyone else! WHERE DID YOU GET YOUR SPRINGS DONE?!?!?

dunno, there is a new MB speed shop in commerce. I'll stop by and see if they can do alignments, then I'll ask if they can do the springs. Since Xfire does not use McPherson struts. will the lowered springs really throw the alignment off? Camber change only ? Toe in/out should not be effected...right?
ESP shouldn't care about the the alignment...It's not a FWD car...right? or wrong?

IMPORTANT :!: :!:
The oem wheel requires a lug bolt with a BALL taper. The oem wheel hub is also about 1/2" thicker than many aftermarket wheel.
Most after market wheels use a conical taper lug.
Be sure of which taper lugs you need before you order the longer bolts for use with the spacers.
--> If you are using aftermarket wheels+spacers, you may not need longer bolts, just different taper bolts of the same length.
-->If you are using OEM wheel+spacer, then you will need longer BALL taper bolts.
Nothing is ever easy these days... :?

Here's a great site on how to install your wheel spacer....just an idea since it's installed in a Nissan Maxima.
