Second alignment required?

[John89]

What’s up everyone, I am getting a 3.5” lift kit installed tomorrow (Thursday) and they will be doing an alignment after. But on Sunday, I have new tires (Falken Wildpeak 285/65r20) coming in to replace the stock Bridgestone Dueler H/L’s. So, I’m wondering if I need to do yet another alignment or would the initial alignment done after installing the lift suffice?

Nope.. alignment is needed for suspension work. As long as its within spec..You’ll be fine not aligning it again once you install new rubber.


Picked up a set of 295/60/20 Wildpeaks a couple weeks back not sure where your getting them from but Walmart had them on sale and my local Discount Tire was able to price match. Might save you some money.

They always suggest an alignment when replacing tires, but that's because there usually hasn't been a recent alignment. Tires do not effect alignment.
