Kinja'd!!!

Have a 1980 Bmw M1.

Now i have racing beat springs on my miata, Will i need aftermarket lower control arms to get an alignment?

You can get an alignment without them, it just won’t be to stock specs.

Trade the Miata. Get an M1. Problem solved! See how easy that was?

It should be able to be aligned to reasonable specs as is. There is a lot of adjustment in the OEM miata suspension.

Many of the pivot points on a miata use eccentric bolts. This means there is a range of adjustment from the factory.
