Hello acurazine! I've been looking around on here for a while and have finally decided I need some direct help. I bought my cls6 a few months ago and decided I wanted to stance it out so I bought function form type 1 coilovers. The Install was pretty easy as I've done it on countless other hondas in the past.
Here's how it looked

I loved the way it looked and the wheels I bought for it were gonna be perfect. Right after I lowered it, the car began shaking at lower rpms up through 45 mph. I replaced both axles, wheels bearings, and a bad ball joint and it still had the shakes. I finally took it to acura and they said it was simply because it was so low that the geometry of the suspension was causing tension on the lower ball joints and axles making them wiggle at certain rpms. They said the only remedy would be putting the stock suspension back on or find extended lower ball joints and shortened axles.
I have read that some of our cars will get the wobbles after lowering and some wont. With that being said, Is what acura said right? If so, where would I find extended lower ball joints? Does anyone have any experience with this issue?
