most of us have had to do it with suspension mod,s, different size tires, what have you. Yes, it will change your alignment, thats why alignment's are adjustable. Maybe think about getting a different mechanic while your at it.
I guess my mechanic has never seen a VX before. I want to raise it a bit and have considered a lift kit but really don't want to spend the money. I have some 15X8.5 aluminum rims that I like. I don't really like the stock 18" wheels. TOO CHROMEY!!!
