Hey guys. I just picked up a set of BC BR type coilovers from a fellow ralliart owner today. Now I know I'll need an alignment after the install, but considering they were just on another ralliart 2 days ago, would I really need a corner balance if it was done for the last RA?

 

What's your intended use/need?

In general, corner balance is not needed on any coilover if you're just daily driving. Set the heights relatively even on all four corners and be on your way.

 

Ya it's 90% for some spirited daily driving. I may (or may not) visit a track like once or twice over the summer

 

Like LateBraking said,
if you measured the before and after height on every corner (center fender to floor). then you have a base at which to setup the coilovers.
Usually you want to drop all corners the same height, 1.5" inches for example.
If you put more of a drop in the front for a slight rake then that will effect handling.
Corner balancing is not needed for street setup but it can correct handling caused by improper height setups if a base height was never taken.

Its just a long process so shops usually charge a good amount to do it.

 

corner balancing for DD certainly not "necessary", but proper preloading of the springs is...

 

Cool, thanks guys
