How long with the drop? And how long with the drop before you got ir realigned?

it could be your tires, they might be under inflated

Go to a different shop and get the tires balanced again. Even better if they can do it on the car.
Do you have hubcentric rings for those wheels? If not, then get them.
Do you use locking lug nuts (4 normal and one keyed)? If so, make sure they are quality ones. I've seen cases where the keyed nut was not the same weight as the others, thus making the wheel out of balance.

again, how long have you had the drop before you got the alignment? And I'm assuming stock shocks and struts?

tires out of balance most likely. although enkei has had a problem with bad rims i believe on the older eclipses..
if your tires are balanced properly, id start checking alignment..
once again though, if you're using aftermarket springs on stock shocks/struts, you've most likely blown them out and will need them to be replaced to get a smooth ride back..
sorry for the ambuigity of answers, its just that your problem could be caused by many underlying factors..

You still haven't answered my damn question. But I was getting to the point that SlasherX pointed out. If you've been on your stock shocks and struts with the drop for a while, you may have blown one of them out. Thats why it's smart to get them matched to your springs. In the future, if you answer questions completely, you'll get a better answer quicker.
