    the right answer- Yes any change in suspension should be followed up with an alignment.

    the common answer... no- depends on how much you like tire wear and your steering wheel pulling to one side or another. The biggest factor is making sure that both sides are the same with you sitting in the car.

        not if you get a lifetime alignment for 150
        i changed my setup quite frequently when i first got my f&f's but didn't have to pay out the ass i went there i think a total of three times and am going to have to go there again when i get my new suspension (this one will go on the coupe and a new one will go on the wagon)

          ^^^ yeah go to a place that will do life time alginments on cars with aftermarket stuff. i just went to NTB and got a "special alignment package" for like 180 after tax. that got me a full year of alignments at no extra cost to me. and no limit how many times i can get it done and doesnt matter if i add extra parts either. yes its a little steep, but that a full year of alingments any time i want, and im planing on doing alot more susp. work, and i will be damned if im going to pay every single time. hell after i get my car aligned twice it will have already paid off.

              firestone is where i got mine done but only b/c i know this guy there.
              he has a 1993 ex sedan manual with some nice rims and i seen him around town when i was delivering and found out where he lived and worked(kinda stalker like huh) just b/c of his accord. anyways he is ase certified in suspension.
              he does all my alignments(even if i have to wait longer)

              here are some pics of his ride(he is doing the wagon brake upgrade on his car)
