My alignment cost $54, they did a good job too.
Yes, when ever you alter the ride height of your car you are changing the camber, caster, toe in etc. When you raise the rear of your car up you will have to get an alignment again. Thats the only bad thing about-coil overs in my opinion.

they have decent deals... I might be heading there now to do lifetime alignment after I drop the car...
I got a computerized (aren't they all? heh) alignment at my local tire shop for $50. pretty cheap.
noticed the difference right away since my camber was off like 1.5 degree on the rear left since I got hit there and the shop that fix it never both to do an alignment or tell me about it.
doesn't the costco tire center have alignment too? whats the rate on those? usaully they have pretty competitive pricing on tires/install/lifetime warranty and services, etc.
I'm thinking of lowering car soon... and I dont really want to buy the camber kits but eh.. guess I have to. lol.

$35 for a custom (Non-Factory) alignment. as in A little toe out on the front, 0 toe on the back, a litte extra camber on the nose, 1-2 Deg. Great for handling, not so good for tires. But I autcross, so my stickys are only on the car for race weekends, where my street rocks are on the rest of the time.
