Any noticable change in suspension geometry will affect alignment ...
Assuming you have some basic tools around the garage ... cutting the springs should be nearly free of charge ...
I have cut mine before with no ill effects.
Cut the springs (cold cut, no torches) ... drive it ... and see what you got ...
If it feels wrong ... take it in for an alignment ... costs under $50.00 here in Vegas at many places ... not a huge investment if it makes you happier with your car.
Or so it seems to me.
