Gary: Alignment needed when going from 205/60R15 to 225/45R17?
Currently running 205/60R15. Ordered 225/45R17 mounted and balanced from TireRack.com. They should arrive this week.
When they arrive they should be ready to bolt on - should I do an alignment as well as the diameters are slightly different (i.e. 24.68 in for the 15" vs. 24.97 in for the 17 ") in order to ensure proper tire wear?
Thanks,
David

Changing wheels and tires will not affect your vehicles alignment. If you haven't had your alignment checked recently, now would be a good time to do so.
