Theoretically, no, but I had my Mazda's struts changed and the alignment did go out enough so that the tires started wearing unevenly. After an alignment, all was well. It can happen.

If it was me I would not be in a rush and do it all at the same time. Why tear everything apart twice when you could just do it once and get it alligned once. Just my opinion though.

RE: 97 civic rims!

what do you guys think about the lowering springs? tein springs or what do you reccommend? will 16" rims look good with a 1/9" drop front and 1.7" drop back?
