Idiot with wrench won't be able to do proper alignment, which is needed after such work on suspension taking struts out to change springs and also due toe & camber changes from lowering. While DIY alignment is possible, still extra tools for that are needed, outside just wrench scope, and it's major PITA and takes lot of time (even more so if done for first time), making it sense to do alignment in shop with proper alignment rig. And if so, maybe it's simpler/quicker to do spring change there too. Though i'd probably would go for good reputation suspension shop then to dealership, to save on costs and possibly have better quality work (especially if i want non-OE alignment and have non-OE other suspension parts).
