Alignment

I recently installed the eibach pro kit springs on my frs and I heard that I needed an alignment. So I went around my area (Lewisville) looking for a place that might be able to align the frs, but all of them said I was too low.
Also I have lip kit, might be the reason why.

I was wondering if there are any alignment places that are lowered friendly around this area?

Texas Track Works in Fort Worth. They do great work. More importantly, they treat your car like it's theirs. Not like NTB, Firestone, etc.

There is a Goodyear(not NTB) that is off MacArthur Blvd and 121 Tollway in Lewisville. They have a in ground alignment bay that can handle our cars even when lowered. Talk to Victor and mention your a member of these boards or that I sent you for a discount.

This is where I went as well.

Recent as in a couple of hours? If so, I'd give it a couple days for them to settle.

That's what I heard from a friend too lol. I installed them Monday and have driven almost 200 miles on them. Should I still give it some more time or do you think I'll be fine?

This. Plus you can buy a year long free alignment package there in case you decide to upgrade other parts. They have probably aligned my car four times this year as I have worked to get it dialed in.
