It's not just Eibachs, most of the time when you lower your car...you will need to get an alignment done.

yea its just cause you modified the suspension. even your camber will get affected. everytime i alter any of my cars suspensions i wait a couple of days and bring it in for alignment. i suggest you do the same. =)

I guess I was lucky. My alignment was fine after my Eibach install. However, I wanted the camber more negative than stock (that's what I got), but toe was unchanged.

Now with my switch to coilovers, it was totally off. Camber was fine but toe was off 3/4"!!!
