Rear Shocks/Springs Dieing...?

K, I give up, since it's coming close to the time I was planning on buying this stuff and installing I started reading more.
I've heard EVERY answer regarding the necessity of aftermarket CC plates, Yes, No, and Maybe. One guy will say "OMG, I couldn't even drive my car without CC plates, the tires shredded as I drove" to a guy who will say "Meh, got it aligned, everything was within spec."
Then, from reputable suspension shops saying "Don't use GR2s, they're designed as an OE replacement and aren't designed to work with high rate lowering springs.
If I have to get CC plates, I can't do this. If I have to get better shocks/struts, I can't do this.
What's up?

Yea, most people were saying with the Steeda springs you don't need plates cause they only drop 1.5", whereas the SS springs drop about 2".
Did you get it aligned after? How much was it off?

Go tokico. i got the 5 way adjustable springs struts n shocks off ebay last year and i couldn't be happier. I did alot of homework when deciding what to buy, and the GR2's are pretty much stock replacement and are the last thing i recommend. The Tokico set, honestly has saved my life countless times and works so well, its ridiculous. Plus its red and white so it gives a nice look
i believe its around 700 on ebay for the whole package. I got it shipped to the states and opened it all up and threw it in my trunk then drove it back to Canada.
