I know the answer is immediately, but I'd like to install it today or tomorrow and I still need to drive for a couple of days (maybe 200 miles) before I can get it aligned. Big deal or not?

You should try and get it asap, I waited 10 mos, and the insides of my tires hated me for it.

 

Shouldn't be too big of a deal. It depends on how much you like/care for your tires. They will wear unevenly until you get it on the rack.

 

You should ok for little bit. I dropped my car last Wednesday and I just got aligned today and my tires are fine.

 

4th gen maximas only take front 2 alignment right???
a few weeks ago.. my local mechanic try to jack me up.. saying that i need all 4 alignment.. i'll probably need one.. since i'm lowering my car this weekend

 

I Installed Eibach/tokico 3 weeks ago and got the alignment about 10 days later. I would not want to chance ruining $600 worth of tires. It threw my alignment out more than expected but no damage to tires. I would imagine the lower the drop the more severe the alignment goes out of spec, so if I was going lower than 2" I would do it right away.
My front right camber is -1.1 but should not cause any problems

About the 2 or 4 wheel alignment. I get 4 wheel.

 

You need to run your car for sometime after strut/spring upgrade so that the spring and shocks get set and are seated properly.An alignment immediately after such upgrades is not recommended as they might go out of alignment .
