Lowering And When To Align

I'm going to lower my car with ACS springs and know that the car will have to be realigned due to the change in the suspension geometry. I talked to one place and they said that when they change the springs they will do an alignment then. Another place said that after they will change the springs, come back in a couple of weeks to let the car/springs settle, then they will do an alignment.

I'm going to spend good money for tires for the new wheels and I don't want to tear up the new tires if the car is aligned when the springs are installed and the springs settle causing the alignment to change needing another alignment.

Or

Not doing an alignment and then tearing up the tires that are on the car now because I'm not going to put the new wheels and tires on until the car is aligned properly.

Which it the right way to do this?
