Lowering springs just installed question

I just installed the Megan racing lowering springs and was wondering after putting them on is it normal for the car to swerve a little like it felt kinda weird haha

Yea it's normal for that to happen.you would need an alignment.Although im not sure how much those springs lower.you might not be able to get alignment to spec.not the best choice of springs IMO.
