Hi, hope to get an answer from you guys

what do you guys do with the fit's rear suspension alignment? especially the toe. After lowering, the rear toe is way out, and I can really feel it when autoXing(understeer one way, while oversteer another way...)...so, since you have a track prepared fit, I bet have a well aligned fit, mind sharing the secret?

We actually don't any camber kit at the rear. We adjust it by the ride height. The key to make the Fit oversteer is the front toe and camber instead of the rear

so if I want straight wheels on the back, I have to go back to stock height? In my case my camber isn't as big of a problem as the toe, having to my steering wheel turned 30 degree left just so the car can go straight kinda bothers me too, not to mention the tire wear...I thought you guys would have a way to control the rear alignment.

I didn't think the rear toe was an issue when you lowered it. I even had coils swapped in and out and when I went for an alignment and saw the alignment sheet, the rear toe was fine.

If you have to adjust the rear toe or camber, there are shim kits from SPC alignment, as well as Ingalls.
