alignment question

i recently installed ksport coilovers(they are very nice), but now that the car is droped im wondering if it should be aligned to the factory specs or would those spec not work for a droped car. this is not my theory but my crazy friends and im pretty sure he is wrong since the specs only account for the angle of the tire to the road and have nothing to do with weather its droped or not iono. im lost burn me, and help me understand!?

You can close to stock specs with the proper suspension arms(camber, toe, traction in the rear). If you still have stock tension rods id get rid of those as the bushings are probably worn. You arent gonna be anywhere close to stock spec with the adjustment range of the stock parts, rear at least.

what he said^^^^^ also if you do get adjustable arms take advantage of what they have to offer. align your car to make it handle good. stock alignment angles suck for hard driving. also if you drive hard you can align it to where your tires still wear even, while handling good
