Fitment focus
The focus is alignment after suspension work: ride height changes, toe, camber, steering-centre feel, tyre shoulder protection and predictable road manners. On a Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution VIII MR, coilover work should be treated as a chassis setup job, not only a parts swap. Ride height, locking hardware, brake line clearance, wheel clearance, damper body position and the final alignment baseline all affect how the car feels on Adelaide roads.

Why TEIN Flex Z is relevant for Evo owners
TEIN Flex Z is a well-known height-adjustable coilover line for street-driven performance cars. Evo 8 MR owners usually care about sharper response, controlled body movement and a sensible ride-height baseline that still works on real roads. The right setup should balance stance, tyre contact, clearance and everyday drivability.
Why four-wheel alignment matters after coilovers
Changing suspension height can alter toe, camber and steering-centre position. Four-wheel alignment helps protect tyres from early edge wear, keeps the steering wheel centred and gives the car a predictable baseline after the TEIN Flex Z coilover kit is fitted. For performance cars like an Evo 8 MR, alignment is part of finishing the job properly.
