Summary of Part 1:
My alignment was wayyy off after installing my Koni's...no problem though b/c i was gonna get alignment after installing them anyways. alignment gets done, but car still pulls hard to the right. get alignment re-done, car still pulls hard right. Did not find a fix for my problem. End of part 1.

Part 2:
Yesterday evening, trying to be a bad-***, i adjusted my Koni's (still w/ the alignment wayy off) to the most firm in the front to show my friend what these Koni's could do. I took a hard hard hard right turn and for some reason my tires (Yokohoma A520's) did not stick, so I kinda hopped a bit. when i straightened out my wheel, my alignment ended up being wayyy off still, except instead of pulling right, it was pulling left!!!! WTF??!!! So I straightend up my car, kept my car in drive while the brakes pressed (I now wasn't moving at all), and i turned my steering wheel hard to the right hoping to balance out my alignment. wtf, now my alignment is back to pulling right. What the hell is going on here??? Now I'm more confused than ever.

My set-up:
Koni adjustables front and rear, Eibach camber kit, Progress lowering springs.

I don't know what to do. I'm starting to convince myself that this is the way it's gonna be as long as i have my max

Any suggestions would help me greatly. Thanks guys.

wow i am concerned about that set up cause i will be running it in a few days,i have been runing the progresssprings on stock shocks for a while now i have changed the rears to koni's but the fonts are sitting in my living room , now based on what you said i think you may be running the koni's at different settings (1 on hard 1 on soft)not your fault just a manufacturers fault so run them on oppposite setting & see what happens .
iwant to know

 

Your driving on smooth, level roads when the car pulls, right??

 

ryz....i'll try doing what you said first thing tomorrow when i pick up my car from the shop. nick - yeah i've been driving on smooth pavement. i keep checking my alignment on different streets, and it's been pullin right most of the time. hey ryz-do you find your spring harsh on uneven pavement??? b/c i do and i thought by getting the koni's it would dampen the bumps..but it doesn't even w/ the softest setting on the koni's.

one confused max owner

 

Hmm..Does the suspension make any sound like a clunk or anything?

 

1MAX2NV -
about the clunking, it does make clunking noise in the front right suspension area when i hit certain types of bumps on the road...but it doesn't clunk all the time. i haven't pin-pointed what's causing the clunk.

Sachin

 

If you are heaing a clunking, couldn't that indicate that something was not tightened properly??

 

Clunking and shifting alignment indicates something loose.

 

My springs were great when i first put them in then when my stock shocks went they were terribble ,when i did my rear shocks i loved the ride again ,turned out one of my rear shock was blown ,so now i am anticipating a great ride when i do the fronts ,sorry to hear yours did not quiet work out,besides you are running 17 wheels i have 16's so that could also be playing a part .
by the way did you use a spring compresor on the fronts springs when you reinstalled them?
