So I currently have the Tokico D-Spec spring and shocks set and Hotchkis Sways. Not on the car quite yet. I wanted to get A-arms and a rear camber kit first and have the shop put them all on at the same time along with an alignment.
So question is, I've looked at SPC and many others. I Auto-X a lot in the spring and summer. Almost every weekend. But then it is a DD all year round also. SPL's sound like overkill for me.
Will the SPC's hit at the drop level the Tokico D-Spec set creates? Would there be a better option. I also heard that the Kinetix A-arms squeak. What would be a good option with my current setup? Also, I'm on stock wheels whether Auto-X or DD just different tires.
Thanks guys.

I have the Kinetix A arms and they dont squeak at all. They have grease fittings on the bushings that bolt up to the body. Just buy a grease gun, hook it up and grease the crap out of them. I've had mine since this summer with about 5-10k miles on them with a few visits to the track. Hasn't squeaked one bit. Whats great about them is that the adjustments dont slip at all. After my first alignment to get them to my spec, theyve never moved from where I originally set them. I've had 2 alignments since the first one for reference.
The only problem with the kinetix is that most shops don't want to do that kind of work for an alignment. The adjustment method of the kinetix is a bit mroe... involved than other arms. My alignment place wanted to charge me 2 hours labor on top of the original price of an alignment. I said eff that and did the front camber myself and brought it back haha
