Thanks for the tire advice again.

An alignment after a tire change isn't strictly necessary (though I'm sure if you got one they'd find at least one item slightly out of spec), but you'd absolutely need one if you did the amount of suspension work they're talking about. I got an alignment with my first tire change but after reading more about it and talking with my indy guy, I learned that typically you only get an alignment if you have some sort of "event", e.g. a really nasty pothole, minor collision with another car/wildlife, etc, or if you notice a problem like the car not driving straight or significantly uneven wear on your tires. As I hinted above, a certain amount of uneven wear inside-to-outside is normal on a car like this, but any discrepancy like that should at least be consistent left-to-right on a given axle.
Good luck OP!
