NTB (at least the two in my part of Dallas) won't do a lifetime alignment on a lowered car. They'll do the alignment (some shops won't even do that), but no long-term guarantee.

what problems are you having with the rear? The front is so much easier. Takes me like 15 minutes.
I'd wait about a month to get it aligned. The springs take awhile to settle. Dont wait too long. I wasted the inners on my old Kumhos cuz I never got an alignment and drove dropped for 6 months, haha.

my problem with the rear was that they send me just the cartridges for rear....so i couldnt put them on b/c you have to use your stock housing. and that means openin or cuttin out something to fit the kyb cartridges.anyhoo i just put my springs on my stock struts on the rear for now it lest........ i didnt have any problems installin the fronts thou,but when i was done with the front........and if you would look at the front end, the drive front was lower then the passn. side..so i have no idea whats going on....i going to take my wheels off...and like you said wait for the springs to settle
In the rear, you dont have to cut anything. What you have to do is open up that big "collar" looking thing. I used a huge wrench and put in my vise to have some leverage. It's tough, but it'll come out eventually. Be careful, because there is oil inside of the strut housing, so be careful to save it and not spill everywhere.
For the fronts, I can't really tell you why one side is lower than the other. Tire pressure? It might be worn parts or just settling.
Try looking at this link. It's what I used as a guideline for when I put my springs and struts/shocks in.
