LCA position

Ive been told that for best handling your LCAs should be parallel with the ground. Since I got my new wheels I needed to drop the coilovers a bit. Now my LCAs are at an angle increasing towards the inside of the wheel. Im not low enough to destroy CV joints, about a finger gap all around. Am I sacrificing much handling by not having these parallel? thanks guys
