Default Does anything affect spring settling?

Regarding the installation of new lowering springs, would different driving tendencies have different effects on how they settle?

1. More/Less Driving (time to settle?)
2. Aggressive/Conservative Driving (how they settle?)

3. Lastly, I know I'm being picky, but would these two sequences produce any differences in the long-run:

- Installation + Same-day Alignment + Alignment 4 weeks later.
- Installation + Alignment 4 Weeks later.

i totally agree with dead zero - 1 week minimum as a good guideline, then align.

Try and find used springs so you can install them, and in a few days get an alignment.
