Still on stock suspension and tires 1 year/12k+ miles later and have not touched the alignment...different wheels and exhaust though. I'm waiting till it's time for the suspension to be replaced to get the full Koni replacement dampers (which are not even available yet...)

I wasn't planning on doing anything, but my brz came from the dealer with 18x9.5" rear wheels and 18x8.5" front wheels. It drives fine, but I'm not 100% happy with the alignment. The larger wheels seem to really show any suspension issues. I want to get a good performance alignment on it as soon as I get the new parts I've ordered installed.
I've already ordered the RCE Yellow starter kit and whiteline tophats, so my suspension won't even last 1500 miles. I'm curious to see how far that will get me before upgrading the dampeners and sway bars. |

Spending the weekend at a local track, after that I'm going to make a call on what springs to order. Going with Sprint since they're about 30% cheaper than RCE yellows up here, going to base the decision for which rates (FRS or BRZ) after the track weekend.
