Default wheel alignment?

i have a 99 civic. it's lowered ~1.5 in. i'm about to put on a new set of tires and wheels. do i need to get my wheels aligned? if so, are pepboys, midas,... good places to go, or should i go to wheel alighnment specialists?

it's always a good advice to get it aligned. before you do so, camber kits, camber kits are your friend. buy 'em. install 'em. alighn 'em. any alignment specialist will do you good. although i've never done a diy alignment, it'd be a good experience. it's best to put it in the hands of a proffessional.

Get an alignment and ask for the specs on you camber toe and caster. Then determine whether you need a camber kit or not.

if ur just down 1 1/2" dont bother with an alignment kit..if ur still within 1% of specs ur still better than most alignments..but do get an alignment after getting ur new rollers
