alignment needed after lowering?
Wanted to know if an alignment is needed when lowering the R230 about 1 inch?

I didn't get my car aligned after lowering my old S and SL, even after getting the height adjusted multiple times. I didn't have tire cupping (I drive slow) and I noticed a slight drifting, but it was probably due to the crown in the road.
Seriously, why is lowering a car such a big deal? For the people that browse this forum, is this your first time modifying a car??! Your car is not going to wtfbbqlol-explode. Whenever you take a car to out-of-stock specifications, you increase the possibility of encountering problems. Or, you can encounter no problems. That's life!
