wow?! :blink:
if you are getting coilovers there is no such thing as a "spring alignment"
you do not need an "alignment" after you drop your focus.
you need to get your "toe adjusted"!
you cannot do anything else from an alignment on a focus unless you purcahse additional parts which you DO NOT need!
I have lowered a lot of Focus' and even with 2.75" drops the camber(assuming you do not have problems before the drop) still falls into the factory spec range.
-camber is not something for drifters so they can break away faster... it helps but it's more of a style factor for them.
on a focus you need a camber kit to get to the required -camber for optimum handling. drifters use much more than just camber to get fast breakaway and they run upto 10ð of -camber! Your focus wont see more than -2ð without the use of an aftermarket camber kit in most cases... and between -3ð to -4.5ð is ideal for a focus for optimum handling on the track and at the AutoX (street too but i do not suggest driving like that on the street). ;)
back to your questions, there is no such thing as a "spring alignment".
you ONLY need your "toe adjusted" when you drop your focus.
with a correct toe setting and -2.5ð camber = very nice for handling on a Focus.
