Hi fitted ebach pro springs to my m3, looks nice a bit lower and seems good on the road, went to a track day on monday and the car was unstable and felt like it was shaking side to side when coming out of the corners, do you guys have the alinement reset or set up after you fit other springs or will it not change just by fitting springs thanks Roger

I was advised to check alignment after suspension or wheel changes. Would def be a good starting point. How old is the car and how many miles, services etc. I'm sure others on the forum would be able to advise more

You will need it realligned but can't say that will fix your issues. I had no issues with mine except my tyres were wearing quicker until it was realligned

When you get it realligned I am sure that whoever does the work will point out any issues

Had mine done at Hounslow tyres as did a few of the other guys on here. They have a proper hunter machine as supposed to other companies who will only have the settings for 'standard' set up - not lowered set ups

Thanks for the replys, Theivz my car is a 2005 m3 with 34000 on, when i did a trackday back in january on oem springs it was fine, so was wondering if it needed alinement just to make sure, and as a lot of people on here has swoped springs is it a must do. Thanks

I usually let them settle for about a week then get the alignment done.
