Alignment After Tire Change?
Is it recommended to get a front end alignment after putting a new set of tires on? I switched from Continental to Michelin.

In my opinion, I dont think it's necessary to get an alignment if you only switch tires. I switch from OEM to my 19's all the time, and I dont see any odd tire wear or any pulling left or right.
I would only get an alignment if you changed the suspension settings.

Maybe a bit late now but I would look at the tread on the set of front tyres you are replacing - if there is no abnormal wear patterns (ie one edge of tread more worn than the other) I would not bother with an alignment

^^ very good point JimmyR!! It would depends on how was your previous alignment before the tire change.
