2) will i need an alignment?

thanks

1) I think the Koni yellows have two different tier mount points. One of them will lower the car a little bit more... not sure how much. Someone correct me if I'm wrong!!!

2) It's always a good idea (I'd say required) to get a 4 wheel alignment after changing the struts/shocks.

There are two positions on these struts.One of them lowers the car a bit .In either case an alignment is not abad idea as wuite few suspension parts need to be joslted around to install the struts so settings could change .Plus if you have any sort of mileage on the car chnces are the car needs one anyway .Jens
