Default Allignment question

I put the tanabe lowering springs on my car about 4 months ago and still haven't gotten an allignment. I don't have any tire wear issues but i'm starting to think that it's affecting my driving. I was going down I-10 while it was raining and my car was all over the place. I was doin about 75 but when I slowed to 60 it stopped. It could be the tires. Another thing is the sound, my tires seem much louder these days, again could just be the tires. Well anyone else that installed springs have trouble getting an allignment. I kinda want to know if i'll have to get a camber kit before I waste my time getting it in the shop.

You should at least try to get an alighnment. The worst taht will happen is the shop will say they can't do it.

If your front tires are feathering, you'll definitely get more noise!

Def get an alignment. I was having issues with the rear end crabbing out when wet/raining really bad after i got my Tein Mono's put on. Alignment and some toe correction fixed me right up. I only dropped the rear .8 so was able to get back into spec without the camber/toe kits. The front is still out of spec as I haven't gotten a camber kit for the front yet, but the car is a heck of a lot more stable.

Thanks I'll get it in the shop asap I guess. I got it up to 138 tonight and it was stable still but it's only like 60$ for an alignment so I guess I'll just have to go get it done.
