I have a 2001 GT and will be installing the Eibach Pro-Kit. I have read that this kit will likely not need cc plates. However, a few months ago I had my alignment done and the shop was not able to get the right side to align perfectly for some reason. I even replaced the right strut bc they told me it was bent, yet they still could not get it perfect and since then, the car pulls slightly to the right.

Therefore, is it likely I will definitely need the cc plates once I install the springs, or will the springs make my situation worse?

Is there something wrong with your stock camber setup, or do you know ? If they can't get the car perfectly aligned, then something must be wrong somewhere, or they dont know what they're doing. One or the other. What kind of shape are your tires and front wheels in ? This can cause bad steering problems as well.

It's not "needed" to get aftermarket CC plates with Pro-kit springs, but it probably wouldn't be a bad idea.

I don't know of any existing problems with my stock camber setup. And my tires were brand new when they did the alignment (about 3 months ago). It sounds like I should get CC plates(MM sounds like the best ones). Hopefully, with the cc plates, the alignment shop will be able to dial in perfectly. I also might try a different shop to do the work. Thanks.

the chassis likes to form it's own shape, not being perfect from the factory it'll tend to move around and screw up alignments, definately get the MM C/C Plates, and if you could try to get some Full length subrame connectors to prevent more chassis flex
