Cool!

An alignment is a big part of getting these. Hopefully you are able to dial that in at the same time otherwise you may not get all the benefits...

Not sure what to recommend. as far as alignment specs. Might be good to PM Jamal or other experts...

Expert? I'm just some guy on the internet who likes to talk about suspension. Thanks though.

My ideal settings are lots of negative camber, and no toe. So like -2 up front or more, and about a half degree less in the rear.

Yeah, still coming from Whiteline.

Thanks J!

Just wanted to bump this find again - the Whiteline guy's info is terrific BTW, but....

HERE is an actual review on a WRX off Nasioc...

http://forums.nasioc.com/forums/showthr ... +Extenders

The second post down is the best in my opinion...

"Summary:
-Excellent new product, huge difference in roll and turn-in, front and rear seem to roll similar amounts now, before the front seemed to roll too much
-Along with my other mods, I liked the change this made MORE that the Whiteline Group4's (still recommend those too though, they are awesome as well)..."
