Either way, when you change the geometry of the suspension, you chance the alignment. Obviously not as severe if only cranking t eOEM bolts but you ARE still changing the geometry and thus changing the alignment.

Brad you can lower the car but as mentioned by someone else, using ONLY stock bolt adjustments you will not get 2" of lowering. Only about 1" with the OEM bolts turned to their max.
To go further, you need to buy longer bolts for the rear and cut bushings off of the front bolts or lose the bolts completely. This WILL make the ride a bit harsher, so then I would suggest getting a set of Bilstien Sport shocks or 2004 Z06 shocks and install them too.
They are just about a must have for a Corvette lowered beyond stock bolt adjustments.
