Default Problem after LowEring..?/?

as some of u guys may know.. i recently lowered my car (just a mild drop maybe 1.5-1.8 not sure..) i noticed that my car feels heavy..when i only had the front installed evrything seems fine (actually rode smoother than before)..but when they installed the rear ones the next day...thats when it feels as if im carrying a freaking ship (mostly in the back)..is this normal or am i just imagining this?.?..

..sorry if this is a stupid question...but I don't know the answer..

thanks.

get an alignment, your toe is probably way out of whack.

oohh truee! that makes sense..thanks! coz i remember reading it somewhere, u should always get an alignment after dropping the car.

any recommendation where to get this done?? because i just called Wheel and Tire in mississauga (specializes in lowered cars) and they said its $110 :shocked:. Well im kinda low in fund right now, so does anyone of u know some other places thats lower than that??

**and also i noticed that the rear actually seats lower than the front (i have eibach sportsline). From what ive read before, this seems to be normal for eibach. It's ok but I actually like the front to sit lower than the back. So I'm thinking if I could just change those 2 in the front with different springs. Is that a good idea or not?

..sorry just a thought.. plss dont be harsh lols.
