If you swapped springs before and after, then you would invalidate the point of doing the tracking. It will change as soon as you change anything.

It sounds like the place is using the type of equipment where you attach it to the side of the wheel on the rim edge and use a light-gauge, not the better type with laser alignment (like Elite in Essex for example).

My advise, take it somewhere that understands lowered vehicles and the different settings you need accordingly.
