Hi, my wheels should be here tomorrow and I already have the tires.
Im looking to get these before the start of next week.

Im also getting a leveling kit put on. I was going to do this tomorrow as well and get the alignment done before the wheels arrive, which Im sure will be around 4pm.

Then I would just have to get the wheels mount and balanced Saturday.

My question is will I need an alignment after adding new wheels and larger tires?
Thanks

Yes.


K ill probably wait.

What if I get the leveling kit put on tmrw and wheels/tires/alignment Saturday?
Ill have only driven like 30 miles not that it would matter because the old tires are coming off anyways.

that wont hurt them. just dont keep putting it off get it done soon. it may not affect your alignment much or it may be quite a bit you never know.

Do you have TPMS as well? If you do then that will have to get remounted too.
