You got an alignment BEFORE you installed shocks/springs that lowered the car?

You realize those parts affect your alignment?

I have Koni Yellows that are adjustable with stock springs. I can adjust how how stiff or how soft the front or rear can be similar to coilovers that adjust dampening but I can't raise or lower my ride height.

I know about Koni's. But the way you worded it sounded kind of confusing. You said the way you have the dampers adjusted, then said you have the sport dampers. Meaning you have the stock sport dampers.
