Alignment after Eibach install?

I was curious to hear the thoughts of others on this before I go back to the alignment shop. After installing the ProKit on our car awhile ago, I took it and had it aligned, although it took about 2 weeks before I was able to get it done. After having it aligned, it feels to me like the car doesn't track quite as well as before, it seems to jump left or right easier, and honestly, it doesn't feel as stable under hard cornering. If you're on a flat and smooth road (very little crown), it doesn't pull to either side, but on a not so smooth road it really wants to wander.
I didn't notice any problems after the install, handling was great and it didn't seem to pull then either, but I just wanted to be sure so I had the alignment done. I'm not much of an alignment guru, so I thought I'd ask for your thoughts. Ideas?

I checked the paperwork I got after the alignment, but it didn't have any specs listed. It just had the alignment check and 4 wheel alignment listed, and the price. It was done by Tires Plus on 39th Ave. I put the springs on the car when it only had about 1500-2000 miles on it, so the alignment should have been OK before the install. If you wouldn't mind checking it out, that'd be great, I just really want an unbiased second opinion before taking it back.

it's possible the allignment was not done correctly. you should go back to where you had it done and check it again.
