Default When should I do my Allignment? Before or After SFC install?

I am in the process of putting new shocks and lowering springs on my car. Lowering it 1.25". I also have BMR tubular SFC to put on. After lowering a car I know you need a alignment. Should I wait till after I get the SFC installed to get the allignment or get the allignment first then SFC install? Would it make a difference?

Alignment first. I wouldn't want to drive around with messed up alignment settings (potentially chewing up tires) while I waited on the SFC install.

Additionally, an SFC install will have no effect on your alignment settings, so there is no advantage to waiting until after you install them to have the alignment done.

Great thanks for the info. It will work out better that way. I didn't want to ride around without a alignment done.
