Should I opt for Alignment with Slightly bent front sturt

My car is lowered 2" . Running on tokico blue's and front pessanger side strut is very slightly bent. Car needs alignment for a long time now, I am wondering if its worthwhile to do alignment with bent sturt?

Any recommendation for alignment place in bay area, CA?

I wouldnt recommend doing it wiht a bent strut.. its just a waste of money IMO..
I'd wait til i replace the strut. then do it...

but then i really dont know if it would work, best bet is to go to ashop and ask them..

Yeah... replace the bent strut... actually... replace them all with something other than struts meant to go on a car at stock height, then get it aligned.

Yeah you should probably opt for a new strut first. Just get ksports.
