ss with sportlines question

when lowering a ss/sc on sportlines do i need to c-cut anything to get a good alignment. Or can i just put these springs on it and get it alligned with no problem? Also will the ss rub with sportlines and factory 215/45/18 tires?

no one has had any problems with rubing so far, just put them on and plan on replacing the shock and struts a little sooner then normal.

also most people have said that the alignment was not necessary for the SS/SC, but I there is an alignment kit available. to correct the slight camber change

No rubbing.
No cutting.
Alignment a week and half later and one tire was minor toe out. No kit.

Dropped the front 1 3\4"
Dropped the back 2"

Handles better. A bit stiffer over speed bumps.
