Default Spf Allignment For New Wheels ??

I am putting a set of PSE 17" wheels on my car this weekend. The car has the stock 15" wheels and was just alligned. Do I need to have it realligned after I put the new wheels on it, or just drive it and see ?? I am taking it to the track and want to make sure everything is perfect before running it. Thanks in advance.

Castor camber and toe will not change because of new rims and tires. However, if you change the ride height, than these can move on you. You may however decide that you want a different alignment now that you have tires capable of cornering. If you are looking for a real good alighnment shop that does lots of cpbras, panteras, etc. I recommend "Accurate Alignment" in the city of orange, off batavia avenue, one block south of the police station. The owner John will ask "street or race?" and you will be satisfied. Much different that the regular tire shop alignment.
