Wheel alignment with New Rims? + some pics.

my friend told me i'm suppose to get another alignment after putting on rims. idk y that would be. i only swapped the tires and put them on a different set of rims...

btw, i wasn't going for the "HOLY ****, Those rims are SICK!!!" because that would be about x6 what i paid.






and idk why my pics come out all f'ed up!

You dont need an alignment. If you got some 9.5/10.5's then i'd suggest getting it aligned. But the M wheels are almost the same specs, no need.

i got TC Sportline spacer, off ebay. the spacers didn't change the ride quality. in fact i put on the spacer in the oem 19's before the M rims, and it looked pretty good. however i don't think it was drivable, because the tires stuck out more the the fenders, and it would rub.

its not 1" its 0.9843". lol. the offset on the M rims was 50! so it needed that big of spacers to even fit.
