Default is alignment always needed after drop?

i'm planning on getting my car dropped with the l-tuned set-up in the upcoming weeks. I was curious as to if i will definitely need to have my car alligned. i have read here that you should but i know others who have their car dropped and said they didn't need it. still others have told me that no matter how it feels you should always have it aligned. thanks.

depend on when is the last time you had your alignement done, if you havent for more than 1 year, then it's time

also depend on if your tires are new or not, if they are new then do an alignment, save you some money for messing up with the new tire later

if your tires are old, wait til you get new tires and do it.

Alignment is not required, but you do it for other reasons, as stated above.
