I wouldn't say you'd do any harm to the CAR, but the tires will ware down really fast. I installed the Eibach Pro Kit and still havent gotten an alignment or anything, my front tires look like 'Kiss Me''Kiss Me''Kiss Me''Kiss Me'. I say install the kit then get an alignment 2-3 weeks after the install that way it gives time for the springs to settle.

you won't be doing harm to the car if you don't lower it more than 1.5 inches but it will ride rougher if you don't change your stocks and struts to some that are better suited for lowered cars. If you go more than an inch and a half you will need new caster camber plates. Also, if you don't get it aligned then you will prolly have problems there with excessive tire wear.

Would a regular repair shop do an alignment? or do i need to go to a performance shop? also how much would the alignment cost?
