Default Alignment right after spring install?

So I'm supposed to go in for springs today at 3pm (Espelir ASDs), but I'm wondering if I need to make an alignment apointment asap, or if I should wait a given length of time until the springs settle a bit?

I probably shouldn't even be buying springs today, but my holiday shopping came in a little under budget. Hoping I can get away with current alignment until after the holidays.

Thoughts?

you usually want to wait til it settles. so alignment does not change.

Get an alignment after the spring settles which takes about 2 weeks or so.

lowering usually doesn't effect toe/caster that much anyway, not enough to cause issues in 2 weeks.
