Lowering and alignment... How long before the tires are jacked??

RE: Lowering and alignment... How long before the tires are jacked??
With the kit installed I can let go of the steering wheel and it goes straight as an arrow, but I think the alignment will readjust the camber, which is very important for tire wear. Isn't that correct?

Yes, lowering the car will give negative camber and make the top of the tire stick in too far.
It will make the inside edge of the tires wear unevenly. The effects won't be noticable right away and it would be fine to drive the car for a little while like that even though it will affect the handling.

Almost two years being lowered on the same set of tires with no unusual tire wear on the front. I have never rotated the tires either only changed the rims. I paid $70 for a custom alignmentalso at the time theydid not make camber bolts either when I dropped my Stang. I don't mind spending the moneyat a custom alignment shop have you ever noticed that the average alignment tech could also be changing oil at Jiffy Lube.
