That's what i'm doing with my car, it'll be a few months before i align mine (when the springs settle). The camber is changed heavily by ride height as well as the alignment of the rack to the control arm, which means your total toe would change as well once it settled. If you get a lifetime alignment somewhere though, you could go in now, then go in whenever you want after that.
