its not necessary...after my pro kit, my car was a hair out of alignment, but i had already bought the CC Plates, so i went ahead and put them on... i got MM's as well...

i do not recommend UPR's though....although they have some great products their CC Plates are not their strong point! i have heard many people talk about how bad their CC Plates pop... unless they have redesigned them in the last year or so

when the car is flexing or when the wheels are turned hard, its just a pop that comes from the CC Plates.... turning the wheels on asphalt while its just sitting there makes it pop too sometimes

you probably don't need cc plates for that drop, but it won't hurt to have them installed. i'm running a set of maximum motorsports plates and the car's straight as an arrow.

I'd get them soon. I have had c-springs and ruined a brand new set of tires in a year... insides were down to the belts.

I do have 275's upfront so it could have been a contributing factor...but they told me they aligned it the best they could; weren't able to do it right without cc plates though.

It will be fine for a while, but why spend the money to get it aligned, when you get CC plates you'll need to get it aligned again.
