Default alignment

After dropping the car 1.25 in the rear and 1.75 front i took it to the alignment shop and got it aligned with no cc plates. Is this possible? Seems to drive straight.

You will have a little additional neg. camber if you just leave them as they are. You will get additional tire wear on the inside edge, but improved handling in the corners.

What are your goals for lowering? Esthetics, twisites or BOTH!
