Question Do I need an alignment?

I had a full Kleemann suspension installed on my E55 just recently and had the car aligned after the installation. I was running #3 pads front and rear.

I've now gone to a #1 pad only in the rear. Do I need to get another alignment or is this such a small change that it's not necessary?

Thanks.

anytime you change the ride height of the car the alignment should be checked. If the steering wheel is still straight while you are driving, then I wouldn't worry about it too much. The change of alignment does not get effected enough to cause problems with that small of a change.

2Mercs,

How much of a difference do you notice between the Kleemann suspension vs the stock AMG suspension?
