Default Dealership Wheel Alignment. Aftermarket Lowering Springs???

Hey guys, i'm planning on getting the Project Lowering Springs from a shop in CT. I have an 08' TC so i'm still under warranty and i haven't gotten my 5,000 mile "check up" yet. I'm curious whats going to happen when I bring my car into the dealership and they do a wheel alignment and I have aftermarket springs that aren't through TRD/Scion. Thanks guys

They shouldn't say anything other than your tC looks a lot better lowered. And for warranty purposes;
your dealership HAS TO PROVE the aftermarket springs did cause a problem. (If a problem should arise later.)

yea they cant say anything to you. we have alot of people come to our dealership and align there scions with teins or watevr else. and they charge the same, they just have to work a little harder to get it right. i thnk, dont quote me our dealer charges 89.99 to align
