Okay, I've never lowered a car in my life, but I think this looks great. The one thing I dislike about my car is the huge gap above the front wheel.
Sooooo, if I buy these springs and have them installed locally, what types of things do I need to be aware of? Sounds like an alignment is necessary which is the case any time you so suspension work I suspect. What about the shorter springs causing a lot of negative camber? Can this be adjusted to factory specs or close? Just want to avoid premature tire wear? I only have a 2 year lease, so I'd like to avoid replacing the tires prior to turning the car in. We have **** poor roads here, will the suspension still absorb major impacts or will the rims and tires be stressed more? I ask because my BMW had bubbles in the sidewalls of 3 of 4 tires from potholes (which I try to avoid religiously).
Anyway, thanks to anyone who can give me mini education on the possible downfalls to lowering the car with these springs! Just some quick bullet points would suffice.

These springs are awesome bro...the camber is in spec but you will need an alignment.....The ride you get with these is like stock or maybe a little firmer.I dont think you will be dissapointed but you will need to give a little extra caution with those bad roads.Hope this helps.
