alignment after installing sway bars?

I'm planning on installing front and rear hotchkins sway bars. Will I need to do an alignment after that?

I got the Eibach set online for $283 and there was a rebate form inside for $20 back from Eibach that I knew nothing about. Eight weeks to get the check, but all was good.

Now I need to put on my revised Z suspension that I've had for eight months.

If you plan on keeping the car a while, I suggest you find a reputable alignment shop that offers a lifetime alignment. Mine cost me around what 2 alignments would have cost. I have had my car aligned at least 10 times since (maybe more), so it has paid for itself several times over.

What shop did this for you? That sounds like a great deal!

DOn't need an alignment. But if you want one you can if it will make you feel better. But if you do, i suggest Firestone since you only pay once and get a life time warranty. I think i been there 3x and don't need to pay anymore.

I had it done here ( http://www.discounttirecenters.com/index.php ) when I first changed tires in 06. I assume they still offer the same deal.
