I had 18" wheels on though and the front right bottomed out in the wheel well, causing the framing member to be pushed up about 15mm. Took it to a frame shop, which is what you should do too, and had it straightened. Look for a frame shop that uses the Genesis system; it uses lasers to find positioning of specific points along x,y and z planes. He pulled my car back to within 1-2mm of 'perfectness, which is well within spec. Manual allows for as much as 3-5mm in some parts from the factory. Total cost of thsi was $500, but you may not need this much done. Typically it is about $100 to have them put it up on the machine and see where things are out of whack and then it goes up from there depending on how badly things are out of spec. Probably wont cost you this much. As for suspension parts, they are f*ing built like brick shithouses so they typically dont give - the unibody does. Have it checked. Good luck.
