honestly, i have not gotten an alignment on car after i put on my Htechs, and this was 2 years ago!
no increased tire wear, and my cars drives straight (no pulling to one side or anything)
but i would still recommend an alignment, especially with coilovers since they have to be ride adjusted where as springs already come at a pre-set height!

It's not absolutely necessary all the time. Sometimes it works out just fine without one. My car for instance needs one once I decide on whether or not I'm gonna raise it up any for winter. I have three wheels that are running a decent amount of negative camber while my front passenger side is still pretty straight up and down and mine pulls to the right a little. Just install them and see what you got. If it drives fine then it's all up to you.

i got an alignment because all of the negative camber in the rear was bugging me, and its easier to drive after an alignment...its not constantly pulling.

cambers sucks though cuz itll destroy your tires.
mine are almost completely cashed after 15K miles.
i cant really get rid of anymore of the negative camber or ill rub like crazy, but for those of you that arent that low, you might want to consider it.
