Question After getting new tires, do I need an alignment?

My brother insists that I should take my car to pep boys, and I am highly weary of this. He was saying something about uneven wear and how they balance them. They are all season tires and I have no drop, what's the verdict everyone? Do I need to go? Thanks.

When u get new tires they rotate & balance them for you.
Unless there was unusual wear on your previous set of tires u won't need an alignment.
You can always go to an alignment shop and get a free assessment on you car's alignment before paying for an actual alignment.

I have yet to do an alignment .... third set up front fourth on back .... so I don't think you need it unless you feel it or there is some uneven wear.

^ whs, the installers can judge the alignment on your car by looking at your old tires wear pattern, if they are even then you dont need an alignment, and if u still want a piece of mind then you can get a free-$10 alignment check at most places.
