It can be hard to spot sometimes. I know the Fits have about -1* on the rears and 0* for the front. I wish I could change it up to -1* up front and either -0.5* or stock for the rears, but my joblessness and college budget aren't allowing for that yet.

 

You already said something! :-P LOL

 

Damn internet! *shakes fist*

 

Well, I'll finally be taking my Fit tomorrow to get the front end alignment done. I sure hope it fixed the steering wheel, too. I'll bring that up when I get there.

 

Let me know how that alignment goes. I don't know why the steering wheel went all jacked up :T Maybe because of that front sway bar. Hope to see your car running like a champ tomorrow.

 

Depends on how radical your lowering.
Yes, alignment is NECESSARY to avoid scapping your tires too soon. Toe is critical of course, and you may find the rear toe cannot be corrected except by squaring up the axle and then perhaps not enough. At least get the front toe correct. That's the only adjustment possible with a stock Fit.
Good luck.

 

As far as I know, the more u lower, the more toe in u get at the back, let alone the massive negative camber.

I've been using T1R ver.1 springs & Eibach pro-kit springs with my Showa shocks setup on my car. I had alignment done with SPC front camber bolts & rear camber shims so I am running a bit less rear camber now. Tire size is 205/50R15 Advan A032R & 15x6.5" +45mm. Rubs all the way if I have passenger at the back. I simply cannot take any passenger coz the rear sits down whenever the car is accelerating or after I pulled my E-brake. The Eibach pro-kit simply feels like a set of chopped stock springs. Don't get me wrong, the material & quality etc are great. But it just doesn't give me what I need.

I ended up swapping the rear springs back to T1R ver.1 now. The T1R have about 3 coils less on the rear springs. Rear end is wayyyyyyy more responsive around corners now and no more stupid rub.

Do alignment or not? It's not expensive to do alignment on the Fit anyway. Coz if u're not getting rear shims like I did, u can only adjust the fronts. U simply can't judge if the alignment is off with your eyes right? I am pretty cheap and I don't wanna get tires every so often so I do alignment every year and rotate tires every 3 to 4 months.

 

Got the alignment done and everything looks fine to me. My steering wheel has been corrected, too.
