Let's just put it this way, if you don't re-align your car, your going to go through rear tires as much as you change your oil!!! 80% of your tire tread will be in excellent shape except the inside part, that will start to wear out fast, plus if you drive the car as hard as I do thfn you want to have as much tire surface as possible on to ground!!! Hope this helps, if you lower the car it's beneficial to get it aligned proper

whenever the height of the car is altered, alignment is necessary/recommended

+1 Give it a day or two to settle and get it aligned.
