Ok. Any advice on install issues. Or is it pretty straight forward install

there was a little bit of squeak noise coming from the rear after install realized it was the clear rubber cover that covers the springs. ended up adding a little grease and the squeaking stopped

Chris how did they get alignment specs

 

[DaJackson]

@chris anderson and @Jayson Im running into issues getting an alignment as well. The local Kia dealer doesn't have the specs and neither does Firestone. Any help getting alignment specs would be appreciated.

I’m thinking of sending springs back. Is it really worth the issues. If you can’t get proper alignment your going to destroy your tires.

You can hit a pothole tomorrow and have the same issue with alignment. If you are worried about it call your local alignment shop and ask if they have the specs, if not ask them to get them and then get the springs installed once they do. Its not like the car is never going to be able to be aligned.

I know that but who’s got the specs for initial install

I would not take my car to someone that didn't know what they were doing the shop I used is called C's Autohaus in Centerville Ohio. USA look them up for there number and you can ask them about specks and all that. I used them because of number of German car owners with real nice cars that i know used them in the past and if someone with a AMG or M series trusted their car with them I figured I could trust them too. I can tell you I have never seen either of those cars coming out of the local firestone or Kia dealership, also when I took my Kia to the dealership for its first oil change the service manager said can you leave it a few hours this is the first one they have ever worked on and they want to make sure they have time to figure it out and do it right

Everyone take a breath on mods give it time before you damage your new car. How do they just put numbers in. If kia does not know how would they know numbers. Be careful. I’ve been trying to get dam touch up paint for m blue still not available after fricken 6 months. Come on kia get with it

If they give you issues returning them I'll buy them from you.

look into this stuff they custom make it from the paint code on your car works great I have used this on two different cars

Sound blanket works great and double has work blanket if you get cold haha

 

[Never thought]

I actually hit a pothole and jacked up the alignment. Kia dealer got the specs, “aligned” it, and now it’s drastically worse. Good times.

My windshield got a crack on my stinger gt. Getting it replace for free.

Crack due to something hitting it or manufacturer fault?

My only complaint on these cars is they seem a little Delicate. When it comes to stuff hitting paint. Air duct on sides just shoots rock threw vent and they scratch up passage doors. Anyone else notice this problem?
