lowering the car affects camber and toe, so yeah you need an alignment.
at least toe, wich what eats up your tires, camber...bah unless slammed dont worry about it.

my car prob has atleast 1.5-2.5 would that be slammed(cuz i might go lower,bodykit still not low enough) and the reason i belive that i have an alignment prob is because my car feels like it has alot of play like if the pavement is uneven the car will pull.
