OK. I called my alignment shop and they recommended having the tires installed.

Yes.285’s has to be installed before alignment, but I suggest you drive for ~ 1000 miles just the way it is ( let it settle) and then install new tires. As for the caster? If you don’t have aftermarket UCA’s, your shop won’t be able do much about caster.Let’m try as high as can. Good luck!!!

Must say I'm a bit biased, but that looks perfect. Thanks for the thorough Before / After shots.

It will be perfect with a 285 tire.

Just a curious question out to any one. Why are the 285’s need to be put on before alignment is done. Is it because of clearance? Thanks.

Eibach needs a stock TRD PRO in SoCal

Almost looks like it gives a negative rake, but I think all “leveling” done on these rigs looks that way. Front fender gap should be less, unless you’re in an E36 M3 Eibach needs a stock TRD PRO in SoCal

No. Even if you go with same size of the tires you had before, tires first and then alignment . It just works that way.

I still have my stock tires on. Going in for the state inspection and first oil change and alignment since Eibach prints were installed. Put over 300 miles on them. Thanks.

It definitely good idea since you touched your suspension components. I do my alignment like once a year as maintenance, just makes my tires last longer and better driving overall.

Yeah that’s why I waited to put some miles on first before the alignment. I would like to add 285’s now but trying to hold off if I can. Working on some other ideas if they pan out. Thanks.

Now with the 285 Falkens. They look way better in person. I have some rubbing while backing up. If I didn’t have spacers I don’t think I would rub.

PSA: These just came back into stock on Eibach's website if anyone is looking for them (were out of stock for a few weeks). Just ordered a pair this morning.

Before I go hacking up the bumper, I'm going to remove my spacers today and see if that will help with the rubbing. I checked the space between the UCA's and I have at least 2" of space so I know rubbing won't be an issue once removed. I will report back later today.

So I removed my spacers today and now there is zero rubbing anywhere. So glad I didn’t have to hack up my bumper. I actually prefer the more tucked in tire look. Now the tires are almost flush with the fenders.

Looks good DallasTrdPro!! Just curious question why with tires pushed out cause rubbing? Now I’m concerned my 8.5 inch wheels the tires will rub.
