Got bigger wheels, do I need an alignment?
My friend told me that going from 17" wheels to 18" wheels, I would need an alignment. Is this true? I don't feel the car pulling to one side or anything. Help!

17 to 18's i would assume it to be fine, as long as you changed all four tires lol
he is correct on the part that by adding aftermarket wheels on any car, changes the alignment specs, because it is not considered "stock" anymore
can't help much all i learnt in school LOL

you only need an alignment when changing/adjusting suspension. New tires/wheels of any size will not throw your alignment out......
