Default Auto RnD FTW!!!

Just wanted to make a plug on Auto RnD's excellent service and knowledge! Josh at Auto RnD did an excellent and efficient job on my Stance SUS coilover install and full front and rear alignment--not to be mention a GREAT price for the work done! The coilovers arrived in just about a week's time as told--although I lagged to stop by and claim them--and the ride quality is excellent! The car is pretty well lowered at 2" drop all around and the alignment is as good as can be with such a drop and no suspension alignment mods; i.e. camber kits, traction rods, etc.

Thanks again to Josh and Auto RnD!

How bad is the camber/toe? Is it good enough to run without alignment mods and not kill your tires? A 2 inch drop is pretty aggressive drop for a Z

Nice drop! OT: I was just in SF last week for my bro's graduation and IMO, the roads are pretty harsh up there. How can you stand it, especially with a drop like that!
