I good alignment tech will see it's lowered and give you the option of some better specs(that's what I always did). Tell them you want:
-.5 degree camber left and right
4.5 degrees caster left
5.0 degrees caster right
+ 1/16 inch toe
If they can't get both sides to -.5 degree camber, have them both set the same. For instance, if they can only get the left camber to -.3, have them put both sides at -.3--being equal is important.
Caster should have the .5 less on the left side to compensate for the crown on the road.
